Where to start ↗Let’s grow together
Sowing without common mistakes
Check the seed expiry date and the producer’s instructions. Prepare a loose seed compost, follow the recommended sowing depth and label your containers. Keep moisture balanced and avoid waterlogging.
Flowers for pollinators
Plant flowers with different flowering seasons. Consider calendula, cornflowers and cosmos. Choose species suited to your climate, light and soil, and avoid treatments while insects are active.
