Soil preparation is not necessary
Preparing the soil is a tough job in a regular vegetable garden. Each spring the plot needs to be plowed or rototilled, fertilized and divided into individual beds.

Fortunately, you don't have to do that in a Planty Garden. Instead, you can just start sowing since you use vegetable garden boxes with MM-mix.
Getting started in a regular vegetable garden
Before you begin to sow, you must first cultivate and improve the soil.
This involves the following:
This involves the following:
- determining what kind of soil you have (sand, peat, clay)
- measure the acidity
- dig and loosen the soil (about 30 to 60 cm deep)
- add manure
- sprinkle lime
- work loam, sand and/or compost into the soil
Pfft, that's quite a bit.
But wait... there's more:
All that heavy work and preparing the ground is not all. You also have to dig your trenches, make paths and divide the sections.

A Planty Garden as an alternative
You don't have to do all that heavy lifting in the Planty Garden. Setting up a few garden boxes is a snap.
Fill them with MM-Mix, and you're done. With ready-made boxes, you'll need an afternoon at most to do that.

If you use our durable boxes, you only have to do it once and never again. They last a super long time.
And since you're using MM-Mix, you'll never have to replace that either.

To-do-list
Your to-do list looks like this in the spring:
- harvest the last winter crop
- lift the grid (<1 minute)
- sprinkle some MM-Plantfood over the mix (<1minute)
- work it through the soil mix and make everything nice and airy again (max. 15 minutes)
- if necessary, top up the box with some new MM-mix (<2 minutes)
- rake everything nice and smooth (<2 minutes)
- and put the grid back in place (<1 minute
Ready to sow 🙂
