Nettle
Urtica dioica
Can be direct seeded in early spring or started indoors 3-4 weeks before planting out. Sprinkle seed over rich soil, cover lightly, firm soil and keep moist. If starting indoors cover containers with plastic film to keep humidity high. Nettles love composted manure. Plant out into sun or part shade and space plants 20-25 cm. apart.
