BARLEY

***NOT TO WA*** (Hordenm vulgare) An ancient grain commonly used for food, fodder, as a green manure crop or for straw. Beneficial for adding bulk organic matter & controlling nematodes in the soil. Grows well on salty soils.

When grown as a green manure crop, plants are best dug back into the soil when the leaves are still fresh & green after approx. 8 weeks after planting. Allow the green manure to break down in the soil for up to 4 weeks before planting any vegetables.

Broadcast at a rate of 45kg/ha or 4g/sqm

Smaller packets are ideal for the home garden.
