Tips to reduce water requirements

We recommend mulching the beds
Experience has shown that by covering the ground, e.g. with Hay or straw, which can reduce evaporation by 80%. If you keep the beds evenly moist, an optimal moist microclimate will be created under the mulch. This not only promotes the growth of the plants, but also reduces water consumption enormously.

It is also recommended to always keep the beds moist , even if the bed is not used for a certain period of time
The drying out of the soil leads to a huge decline in the micro- and macro-organisms in the soil, which over time leads to an infertile soil . Tests have shown that the water content in the entire bed remains longer when the entire bed is watered over a longer period of time than when it is only watered selectively. Due to the small volume of the poured areas in contrast to the large dry volume, they dry out more quickly than if the entire volume of the bed is filled with moisture. Similar to heating in an apartment.

If the beds are not in use, we recommend sowing with green manure.

Maintaining an energy level always requires less energy than having to reach it again and again.

The pith pea 'Miracle of Kelvedon' is an ancient, annual, early, colder-ready and fully heat-tolerant variety of peas from England. The high-yielding and historic variety of shell has been officially grown in Europe since 1944 and is one of the best pea varieties for over 50 years. The plants form long dark green pods with 7-10 dark green peas and can be grown without climbing aids. The taste is soft, sweet and aromatic and are suitable for fresh consumption or as a dry food.

General
Sow peas directly in rows. The optimal sowing time is on average at 10 ° C, but can also be sown at warmer temperatures. From a plant height of 10 cm, we recommend piling the plants with soil so that they thrive optimally.
Pea prefers a sunny and open location with sufficient water and nutrient-poor, humosem, Calcareous, Loosened and deep soil. Avoid waterlogging.

Additional tips
Since the soil is supplied with nitrogen through the roots, they should only be cut off after harvest and left in the soil. Due to the nitrogen excretions on the roots of the peas, planting in mixed culture promotes surrounding plants. In marker peas, only the seeds are harvested when they are green and mature. This variety needs k A framework for the pea shoots to guide up. In order to quickly obtain a fine, crumbly and well-drained soil, an additional incorporation of biochar and primeval rock flour is recommended.

Spread occurs via seeds.

A deeply loosened Beet is sufficient.
