It is enough to plant a variety of sorrel on the plot once and harvest it several times during the summer.
It is only important to choose the right place for this plant and provide sufficient watering and nutrients.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told how to care for sorrel in a plot in order to collect a good harvest for several years.
The right place
Sorrel can grow in the same place for about 5 years. However, you need to choose it correctly.
The plant needs to be planted in a place where it will receive enough light.
Also, water should not stagnate in the bed where the sorrel will grow.
When to plant
Sorrel can be planted in open ground in early spring or in mid-summer.
It can also be planted in autumn. It is best to do this in October.
This plant is cold-resistant, so it can germinate even at temperatures from plus three to minus four degrees.
Care Features
Sorrel loves water, so it is important to provide it with sufficient watering.
If the soil is too dry, the plant may quickly produce flower stalks.
In the spring, the space between the rows can be loosened by adding humus and ash.
Afterwards we water the plant and cover it with film.
Earlier we talked about whether it is possible to water violets with tea.
