  • Deep roots loosen the soil and improve water retention
  • Green mass serves as mulch or compost – natural cycle
  • Sowing from May to August for optimal development
  • Ideal for sunny locations and all soil types

What makes alfalfa green manure special

Alfalfa is a robust, perennial legume that symbiotically fixes nitrogen from the air through nodule bacteria. It sustainably improves soil fertility and reduces the need for synthetic fertilizers. With a sowing quantity of 100 g, the pack is sufficient for about 10–20 m².

Ideal for hobby gardeners and farmers

Alfalfa is particularly suitable for garden owners who want to improve their soil naturally, as well as for small organic farms. It is an ideal preceding crop for heavy feeders like tomatoes or squash.

How to use green manure alfalfa

Sow alfalfa from May to August on a well-prepared, loose seedbed. The sowing depth is about 1–2 cm. Keep the area moist during germination. After flowering (before seed maturity), the green mass is mulched or dug under.
