I currently only have six plants, but I was lucky that they are all different and did not come across the same. The mission to collect the remaining ten I think is not feasible, but still I count on 4-5 more plants, because just the other day we are going to buy from Lenta.

Also, plants can be obtained for the purchase of partner products participating in the promotion - you can find out about this on the pages of the catalog of the Lenta chain of stores.

The growing kit consists of natural elements: seeds, peat tablet, planting pot. Each kit comes with planting instructions and general growing tips.

Please note that each plant has its own individual growth period. The degree and rate of germination of the plant depends on the conditions of cultivation, watering, seed storage conditions. Do not forget to transplant the plant into a larger pot in time.

Please note: The peat pot, peat tablet, pot packaging and seed packaging are not intended for human consumption. We also ask you to be careful if you have individual allergic reactions to certain plants when growing them.

And here are my plants - cucumber, sunflower, beets, radishes, peas and basil.



They were in such cardboard boxes, inside a planting pot, a peat tablet and the seeds themselves - each bag of seeds is signed and the expiration date and the date until which the seeds must be planted are indicated.


All necessary instruction on planting is on the spread of our cardboard label.


There is also a ruler here for measuring the height of the soil - this is necessary for planting, but personally, after the first pot, I did everything by eye, and there is also a special plate with the name of the plant and the date of planting and transplanting, in order to stick this plate into our pot with plant and sign when it was planted.


For planting, in addition to our set, we will need warm water (I took boiled water), a bowl to soak a peat tablet in it, a spoon and a measuring cup.


I did everything according to the instructions, put the pill in a plate and poured 40 ml on it warm water, after which she waited for the tablet to swell and turn into a full-fledged soil.



She kneaded it with a spoon and began to put it in our pot.

I filled the pot without reaching the edge by 5 mm - 1 cm, it depends on how much earth came out of our peat tablet. Be sure to leave a little earth in order to cover our seeds with it.


I planted the seeds - carefully distributing them in a pot and covered them with the remaining earth, poured water - 1-2 teaspoons, after which I wrote the planting date on the plate - I have it on 04/01/17 and stuck it in our pot with a plant.


I did the same with the rest of the plants. After that, I put all the pots in such a small box for convenience and put it on computer desk next to the window - here I have the brightest and coolest place, and direct sunlight does not shine here - the plants should be comfortable here.







Don't forget to water our plants.

IMPORTANT!

If suddenly a peat tablet does not swell for you, then the water is not hot enough, I probably suffered with three pots, after which I went to boil the kettle and changed my plate to a measuring cup - since it was not too deep, the water did not completely cover a pill and because of this it did not swell and it was not soil, but rather just dirty water.


As soon as I changed the container and began to pour hot water, the process went much better and the earth became thicker and more of it than in the first three pots. Therefore, I advise you to take this into account.


Now it remains only to wait for my sprouts to sprout - as the plants grow, I will make updates and add photos! Therefore, if you are interested, subscribe and follow the growth of my plants with me!


I really liked this action very much, this time "Lenta" really tried not only for children, but this process will be interesting for both adults and teenagers. I have already planned here to buy larger pots, so that later I can transplant my plants and continue to grow them)

By the way, for this you can buy everything you need in Lenta, there are now special boxes for seedlings as part of the campaign, so I think to buy them, but first you need to grow something, of course)

It is very captivating and relaxing). Now I have a second kind of hobby!

6 days have passed since the plants were planted, they were planted on 04/01/17, today 04/07/17.


Almost all sprouts sprouted, except for basil and cucumber, but today they also have small advances, it is clear that sprouts are hatching. Tomorrow I will transplant radishes, peas and sunflowers into seedling boxes, which I bought the other day in Lenta - if everything goes well, I will post photos of the transplanted plants here for further observation.




In the meantime, enjoy what I have grown)

By the way, I watered the plants every day (in the morning and in the evening, perhaps it was because of this that something grew in me).

Thank you all for your attention!

I WANT SPRING

To bring the calendar spring closer, the Lenta hypermarket chain offers to grow something green.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The retailer has launched a "Plantation Promotion" - at the checkout for purchases, they are awarded a collection set for growing seedlings: seeds, peat tablet and a pot. Customers are offered to collect a collection of plants from 16 types of vegetables, flowers and herbs.

"Action Plantation" is conceived as a game for families with children. Pretending to be farmers and gardeners, children take care of plants and watch them grow with interest.

Lenta also released everything you need to take care of a mini-plantation: pallets, watering cans, garden mini-tools and seedling boxes.



PACKAGE DESIGN

For the collection set, a branded packaging was developed. The design is a shell - a cardboard "sleeve". Its back is printed with instructions for planting, general recommendations for growing plants and auxiliary materials. The label is used as a reminder-identifier. It indicates the place and date of planting seedlings.

The timing of 15 seconds was not enough to familiarize the audience with the action. Therefore, we proposed to release two videos in turn: to the beginning and to the middle of the action. For the duration of the event, this will maintain the interest of buyers. The creative department has developed scenarios that play out situations of receiving a gift and playing the plantation itself. The plot is based on emotional family and children's images.

VIDEOS FOR THE PROMO SITE

Lenta has launched a website for the project, where you can learn more about the plants in the collection. The process of their growth is shown in a one-minute video, which we filmed using a centrifuge. The centrifuge took one shot at a set time, and three weeks later the shots were assembled into one dynamic video. In order for buyers to see how easy it is to grow a plant from the sets of the Plantation Promotions collection, we have filmed a step-by-step guide. It included elements of centrifugal photography.

I think it’s no longer a secret for anyone that it’s time to resettle the cities, and in fact everything is moving towards this. How such huge cities appeared is a relic of the past, when industrialization was going on and labor was needed. The governments of all countries made great efforts to destroy villages and attract people to the cities for factories. What do we have now? Now we have the fourth industrial revolution, which will destroy the working class. As you can see, workers are being replaced by robots everywhere. Soon there will be no need for drivers, I think everything will come to the point that manual driving, in general, will be prohibited. Since robots will drive faster and more clearly.

What should we do? simple working class. It is impossible to increase sales further and multiply offices. Soon the land will not be able to sustain such an economy and a consumer society. So it's time to return to earth. And silent propaganda already underway. One of the echoes of this we see in the Tape. The “Plantation Promotion” has recently started there, that is, for a small amount of money and a discount card, you are given plants that you can plant at home. Cool? This is especially fun for kids.

Today we will plant these plants in this review of "Promotions Plantation". And below, see what has grown and how we transplant.

And now we have grown plants and we will transplant them.

Even in the recent past, our grandparents forced seedlings on window sills, depriving their own dwelling of sunlight. Although, some people still do it today. However, today, there are many devices with which you do not have to sacrifice your own comfort for the sake of green bores. It is about them that we will discuss: LED strip for plants (phyto-LED strip or simply).

It is with the help of them that you can set the required length of daylight hours, arranging the plants as your soul desires.

Phyto-LED strips do not harm plants. They do not dry the soil, and therefore, they can be watered less often. They do not cause thermal burns to the leaves, because they do not produce heat.

An undoubted advantage is also that different LEDs can influence the growth and maturation of seedlings in the way we need at the time we need.

In fact, phyto-LED strips do not particularly have hallmarks from simple LED strips. Phyto-LEDs, like ordinary ones, are small in size, use little electricity, and can function for a long time with long-term use. This description suitable for any type of LED strips and lighting devices with them.

A particular difference between phyto-LEDs is the wavelength of light they emit. It is 450–660 nm. This spectrum of frequencies is called "phytoactive" because of the ability to directly influence the formation and maturation of plants. Certain parts of the spectrum, in particular violet and blue (440-470 nm), have an extremely beneficial effect on the development of the root system, as well as the development of inflorescences and fruiting. The infrared part of the spectrum (630–660 nm) contributes to the development of the stem part of the plant and leaves.

LED strips used for plants

LED strips for plants can have both a full spectrum and only monochrome. Sometimes, during production, some manufacturers combine them into full-spectrum and multi-color matrices (this is when they use different crystals in one LED).

LEDs that emit only the blue or only the red part of the spectrum are called monochrome. They are used only in certain phases of plant development. For example, when you need to promote the rapid production of flowers and fruits.

Full-spectrum LEDs are more like ordinary sun rays. Their use can be possible in any of the phases of seedling development, as well as to provide indoor flowers with light. Their efficiency is several times greater than that of monochrome ones.

Summing up, we can distinguish several types of phyto-LED tapes:

  • monochrome;
  • having a full spectrum;
  • combined (combined).

At the same time, it is worth highlighting the point that cultivation is carried out under (phyto tapes), and not just under LEDs. If we consider the device of the lamp, then it consists of phyto-LEDs, a reflector and a power supply. This kind of design can be made even by yourself, which will cost much cheaper than production analogues.

Phyto LED tape used for seedlings

To obtain healthy and strong plants, amateur gardeners with experience give advice before picking to use monochrome phyto-LED tapes - blue and red so that their proportion is 2: 1. The blue spectrum ensures the rapid development of the root system, inhibiting the growth of the stalk. Therefore, the seedlings do not spend all their energy on the formation of the stem and turn out to be healthy and strong.

As the plants pass the dive stage, their need for constant active light decreases slightly. And due to the small need for a dormant period, the light can be completely turned off for 1-2 days.

Most plants need 13 hours of daylight. However, depending on the species, this requirement may be higher or lower in some. Information about this can be obtained from special sources or from more experienced gardeners or directly in their own practical way.

Phyto LED strips used for indoor plants

When planting new plants, it is possible to use all the same tips regarding seedlings. But, during the period of the complete formation of the plant, it would be more correct and practical to use phyto-LED strips that have a full spectrum, similar to sunlight. They are more acceptable to plants.

But, here it is necessary to take into account the annual cycles indoor plants, as well as their specific features regarding the length of daylight hours. Because many of them, for example, in winter, need a dormant phase when there is no need for additional lighting. And some even benefit from its absence.

On days without sun, rainy weather, flowers also need additional lighting.

There is a fairly simple method for determining its necessity. Turn on lighting. If it becomes much lighter, then you can leave it. If nothing much has changed, then additional lighting is not required for your flowers and seedlings.

At the same time, the importance LED backlight ribbons as an element of room decor. Its use will carry both practical and aesthetic functions. The illumination angle of each of the diodes is 70–120 degrees, so it can be used in poorly lit areas of the room with natural light, with the so-called northern locations of the rooms. This lighting will look extremely beautiful in loft or high-tech apartments.

DIY phytolamp

We present to your attention a video in which it is described in detail and shown how to make a phyto lamp with your own hands using LED strips and a variant of its use for growing violets at home.

Conclusion

The use of phyto-LED strips as an additional source of lighting for flowers and seedlings has many undeniable advantages and is actual way their cultivation. Its cons are very minor. Through their active use, you can achieve good results in growing high-quality, healthy seedlings and flowers, regardless of the season and weather conditions.
