I got screwed Planting my herbs on a mobile seed bed.

While its just so good for me to keep on working in the garden, and if at all there are no more space on the land, i'd use a seed bed or a mobile one


  • This is a case of my hibiscus tea plant, planted for more than 3 months now, the reason for this, is that i had planted some of these plants on the soil before and it yielded a very good result, a leaves, the fruits and the flowers are just so lovely. I love the hibiscus tea, we do call it 'zobo drink' here, very nourishing while people pay money for this drink, so thats what prompted me into growing more of it, but there were no space, no opted for a mobile seedbed.

Honestly, for those that have been following my posts, my dream has been to have all kinds of leafs and herbs, well i believe in industrial drugs too but still prefers natural medicine, fresh juice from herbs compared to carbonated drinks, most of the sugar from these drinks are quite harmful to the body.


  • my mobile seed, was doing just fine in its early days, the leaves so green, stem growing and the flowers so good but later on, due to excessive heat, the leafs begin to wither and getting dried, before then it was pests that attack the leafs, thats was very frusting, now the leafs are getting dried, i think this one of the disadvantages of using mobile seedbed

I think another problem is the poor circulation of air, plants or herbs planted on the seed bed are usually packed together without no adequate spacing, this is the case of hibiscus tea, air's not allowed to circulate adequately thereby increasing the moisture level, perhaps this is also the reason why the pests and diseases easily spread across the seed bed.

I must admit, I've not been keeping a close look towards this, been busy working on the other garden, its still not a waste yet, as am adding some more manure and constantly puting water just to revive the plant while i can enjoy my juice later on.

Ah, disasters are annoying, but sounds like you have lots of other things going on. Can't all be perfect! I agree with you on the sugar thing. I dont understand people here that say, 'here's this lovely plant that's a great natural medicine, I just juiced it and added sugar' - why add sugar? I dont get it.

Seems there are people out there who can't do without sugar,if only they know how harmful it could be fo their health

There is still hope for survival if you can keep close eyes on the herbs. Survival is inevitable too.
No herbs plant should go into extinct.
