  • One of my favorite things to grow in the garden has to be watercress. It is so delicious! Watercress is rich in vitamin A ,vitamin C, and is a good source of folate, that being said please do your own research. I enjoy it mostly by itself with a sprinkle of salt and a bit of lemon. If you haven't grown it, I sure hope you do, it is mighty tasty, and grows quickly. Two quick notes; 1. by saying my "area" I meant "my garden" 2. The watercress was fed every two weeks with fish emulsion. Hope you guys enjoy this video. :)

    Thank you! I used this method and I have beautiful watercress just like her video. I live in Canada where you cant get it in the stores. Now need to figure out how to do it when winter comes!

    So happy to find your channel because I'm growing watercress for the first time in my tabletop diy hydroponics box. I searched "watercress" or maybe it was "hydroponics watercress" and your vid popped up. I'm in AZ but this vid made me so happy because I grew up and in Pomona. All my kids were born in Pomona. We had a house there and my dad would grow all kinds of plants. I miss it so much. Thanks for making my heart smile, bringing back all the memories and the watercress info.

      I think her watercress seeds germinated fast. My watercress took roughly a month to germinate outside in a pond-like container ( with no- hole at the bottom. I think watercress seeds takes a long time to germinate. Her watercress seeds germinated fast, but growing slowly probably because she plant them too dense together, so they didn't have enough room and nutrition to grow bigger. I think I'll try the method planting watercress from store bought cuttings, because they grow roots fast from cuttings. I'll also try to grow some more watercress outside, since I still have lots of seeds left . I bought the seeds from various sources. The seeds germinated slowly probably were old seeds.
