Nettle

To sow nettle seeds under cover, you need to place them in containers such as cups, pots or boxes filled with garden soil. Make sure the potting soil is well moistened before placing the seeds. We recommend sowing nettle seeds in early spring, around March or April, when temperatures start to rise. Place the containers in a bright spot away from direct sunlight, and keep the soil moist by watering regularly. Make sure the temperature is around 20°C to encourage the seeds to germinate. Once the young nettle seedlings are a few centimetres tall, you can transplant them into the garden. Be careful not to over-water the young plants to prevent root rot. By following these simple tips, you can easily grow nettles naturally in your garden.
