With our herbbed in the Tetra Pack you can easily conjure up your own little herbbed for the window sill, the balcony or the garden. The minibed is not only very cheap and waterproof, it is also suitable for growing radishes, pruning salad or capuchin cress.
All you need is an empty Tetra pack, soil and seeds. Start right away!
First you put the Tetra Pack and the scissors ready and a knife at your hand.
With the small pointed knife you pierce the first hole in the upper side of the Tetra pack.
Attention, danger of injury!
Ask an adult for help with the pointed knife!
Then you cut a large opening into the top of the Tetra pack with the scissors from the incision. This creates a small flowerbed.
Now you need the grower's soil and a spoon.
Then fill your mini flowerbed with earth.
Your flowerbed is ready for the window sill.
Tip: Because Tetra-Pack is waterproof, you do not need a waterproof backing.
Now you plant your mini-beet to your heart's content. For this, e.g. radish seeds or capuchin cress are suitable.
You can also make a Tetra-Pack herbbed from the Tetra-Pack-Beet by planting it with thyme, lemon balm or basil.
Or you can use it as a planter for the herb pots you can buy at the supermarket.
Tip: Paint your Tetra-Pack flowerbed/herbbed with acrylic paint or glue it on. This is how your minibed looks beautiful in no time.
Have fun trying it out!
