HELLO HIVE

Jute leaf is a very nourishing West African cuisine, particularly in soups with a natural attractive deep green colour and a delicious taste that makes it an interesting addition to our garden, it has similar growth properties and period to spinach. This blog post will dwell more on how to successfully cultivate this vegetable in our garden at optimal conditions.

To cultivate a jute leaf plant we need a seed that is very tiny and black for a matured seed, now I get jute seeds from local markets so you can't really complain about the quality of the seed but the seedlings that have germinated in the garden so far the seeds are definitely quality seeds and am sure that with time I might not have to go to the market to get the seeto d cause what I have in the garden should provide more than enough seed for me and even if it doesn't I still have the market to fall back to, these markets are never really out of supply of the seed.

Clear a small portion of land inside your garden you should also till the ground and then plant using the seed dispersal method because the seed is so tiny that you can hardly grab one you can now mix the soil and the seed together either by using your hand or your feet that way you keep this seed away from seed-eating pest.

Germination might take a while and it is also not usually uniform but with time it will germinate and dominate your garden with its beauty.
