Sorrel
Where and how to sow sorrel outdoors?
To grow sorrel (rumex) outdoors, it is best to sow the seeds in spring, once all risk of frost has passed. Before sowing, it is important to prepare the soil by carefully weeding it and working it deeply so that it is well aerated.
Seed sorrel seeds can be sown at a depth of about 1 to 2 cm in rows spaced about 30 cm apart. It is recommended to leave a space of about 20 cm between each plant. Sorrel needs well-drained, fertile soil, but there is no need to add chemical fertiliser.
Be sure to keep the soil moist after sowing to encourage germination. Once the plants are well developed, it is important to water them regularly, especially during dry periods. It is also advisable to mulch around the plants to keep the soil moist and limit weed growth. By following these tips, you can easily grow sorrel outdoors naturally and sustainably.
