A young couple in Shenzhen grows vegetables on a 5.9㎡ balcony. What did you learn from them?

On April 13, 2022, because of the epidemic in Shenzhen, the video of a young couple growing vegetables on their 5.9 square meter balcony became popular on the Internet. From the video, we can see that the house where the couple live is only 90 square meters, which is a wedding room for two people, including a balcony of 5.9 square meters, so the couple planted some vegetables on the balcony, including tomatoes, lemons, blueberries, peppers, etc. It can be said that they have opened up a small world of their own.

In fact, when most people are young, people living in rural areas have an idyllic dream of their own, especially hoping to have a small vegetable plot of their own, and then plant their favorite vegetables, fruits and flowers. Many people lived in the city after work, so they gave up the idea, but the young couple in Shenzhen put it into practice. In fact, the couple have a plan to plant an orchard at home during the Spring Festival in 2020. At that time, the epidemic had just begun, and they had not gone out for almost two months, so they wanted to make good use of their balcony.

At that time, both husband and wife were addicted to growing vegetables and melons. They spread a little paper towel in a small bowl, sprinkled some seeds, sprayed some water, covered it with a plastic film, and poked holes with toothpicks, and the seeds germinated. According to the post-90s couple, the woman is an illustrator, and her hobby is farming, so she often calls herself a farmer, and has opened an account on social platforms, and has also grown many fans. Because the balcony of the couple's house faces north, the light of these fruits and vegetables basically comes from the fill light.

But fortunately, these fruits and vegetables are very competitive and grow well. Every day, the couple watch their plants begin to bloom, then pick them themselves and sink them into the plate, and they will feel that life is very beautiful. I believe many people look at this young couple after 90 and feel envious. Epidemics and space will naturally stop people, but life will never stop. It is precisely because this couple are talented people who love life and can create their own paradise. It is estimated that many people have learned the spirit of optimism from this young couple.
