Care instructions

 

ecobox contains coconut fibre tablet, wooden plant stick for writing on, compostable planting cup and sa plant seed bag.

  • Slide the lid off the wooden box and remove the contents. Paint the wooden box however you like using the included coloured pencils.
  • Open the peanut seed bag and place the seeds in a glass of lukewarm water overnight to pre-swell. Then place the brown growing pots next to each other in the box and divide the coconut fibre tablets evenly between the cups placed.
  • Slowly pour water into each cup until approximately below the edge of the cup. About 5 minutes later, the swelling tablets have magically transformed into coconut fibre soil.
  • Plant the pre-soaked peanut seeds approx. 1 cm deep in the soil and cover with a glass. Open the other seed bags, plant one variety in each of the other two cultivation pots and cover them with a little soil so that they are completely covered. Label plant markers and carefully attach them to the respective plant variety so that you can then distinguish between the plants.
  • Place the wooden box in a bright, warm place (22 to 25°C) and only water moderately (approx. 40 ml about every 3 days – avoid waterlogging!). Now you have to be patient!
  • After about 10-18 days the first green plants begin to sprout. Continue to water the ecogarden only moderately.
  • After approx. 4-5 months, the first ripe tomatoes and strawberries can be harvested continuously.
  • As soon as your plants get too big, simply transfer them into flower pots with a little soil or outdoors using their compostable nursery pots.
  • If the peanut plant wilts and turns yellow (after approx. 4-6 months), it is finally time to harvest! Carefully lift the entire plant out of the ground with a digging fork. There will be around 20-30 peanuts hanging from the root ball. Hang the plant to dry for 2 weeks. Then separate the pods and dry them for another 2 weeks (e.g., spread flat on a tray). Only then can the peanuts be roasted in the oven/pan (salted if necessary) and eaten!
  • You can then use the wooden box itself as a practical pen or toy storage box, for example!
