Green manure

The quality of the soil of your vegetable garden is a very important factor when it comes to a healthy and successful harvest. Therefore, it is key to take good care of the soil. A great way to do this, is by growing green manure in autumn.  Generally, green manure is sown after the main crop is harvested. It establishes a better soil structure, maintains the level of organic matter and fixes nitrogen in the soil. We would like to tell you more about the best way to use these green manures.
