自己种植蔬菜移植
在菜园里自己种植蔬菜的好处总是比从大商店里买植物更有优势。其中的一些好处包括能够控制在你的作物上喷洒的农药或化肥的种类，从而生产出更健康的作物，并在你自己的菜园种植时提供最大产量的作物。
家庭园艺vs.商店购买的作物
在本周的节目中，特拉维斯讲述了自己种植蔬菜移植的好处。自己种植和从家得宝(Home Depot)、劳氏(Lowe 's)或当地饲料和种子商店等大型商店购买植物有很大的不同。特拉维斯展示了他移植的两株辣椒和他从一个大盒子商店买的两株。他亲手种植的辣椒是他种在我们的种子开始盘，等它们准备好了，就把它们从温室移植到花园里。他从大卖场买的那些是在一个可降解的花盆里，里面有一棵大约一英尺高的植物。从视频中可以看出，从商店买来的植物自从移植到花园里后就没长多少。商店里的这些植物看起来不健康，果实也很少。而我们自己种的那些也长得很好，而且到目前为止在花园里的产量也很高。虽然商店买来的植物可能在商店看起来很有吸引力，但一旦移植到花园里，它们就不会保持健康，产量也不会超过家庭园丁在温室里种植的辣椒移植。另一个好处是，如果你自己种植，你会节省更多的钱，得到更多的植物。你可以通过在种子开始盘中种植植物来获得更多的产量，从而节省资金。当在开始播种的托盘中种植时，这些托盘不仅包含用于移植植物的162个细胞，而且由于内部垂直的根训练肋，它们还提供有效的根生长。这训练植物的根向下生长，而不是缠绕植物，成为根束缚。 This seed tray will also help with soil aeration and root ball drainage. This will allow for less transplant shock and quicker production of crops. These seed starting trays will also allow you to get a head start on the growing season. Having seeds already planted in these trays they will be ready to go in the ground whenever weather or temperature conditions are just right. You also don’t have to only grow what is available or what you can find at the big box store. Another benefit to growing your own food is producing healthier and fresher crops. When home gardeners are producing their own crops they can control the frequency and what types of pesticides and fertilizers they are spraying in their garden. Most of the home gardeners are only spraying their plants with all-natural or organic chemicals because they are healthier for the plant and the garden pollinators like bees. The plants are fresher due to them not being overly sprayed with insecticides, pesticides, and fertilizers as well. In commercially grown farming they have a tendency to overuse these chemical products due to them trying to maintain quicker and faster production. Also, to keep the product in good condition for supermarket purposes and standards. Overall, growing your own food can have many more advantages and better results than just buying plants from the big box stores.
