Today I made a raised bed. In the past year I have already used it for spices.
First I lined the bottom and the inner walls with felt. This is to protect the wood of the bed. It is also intended to maintain soil moisture and oxygen circulation.
First I filled the bed with humus. I took the humus from old molehills on one of our meadows. According to a gardener, this humus should be particularly rich in nutrients. Then I filled the bed with 20 liters of potting soil from the hardware store. Then I sowed the seeds "Saltchyrsanthemum Chopsuey Green Shungiku". Then I pressed the seeds lightly, put them on a thin layer of humus and then slightly moistened them.
I have sown Lettuce Chrysanthemum Chopsuey Green Shungiku. This is a fast-growing annual spice and ornamental plant from Asia whose leaves, flowers and buds are edible. They have an intensely spicy and tart taste with notes of carrot, parsley and celery.
I'll keep you updated on whether my plants are growing
