Description
Cork: 100% Portuguese, it is a natural material that is lightweight, water-resistant, renewable, and biodegradable. The bark of the cork oak, from which cork is harvested, regenerates every 7 years, eliminating the need to fell trees to produce this noble, sustainable, and distinctly Portuguese material.
Practical: A cork pot that serves as its own planter and can be reused. It contains everything you need, including instructions. Even for beginners, growing chives is easy and accessible.
Versatile: Small, lightweight, and with a simple design, it is perfect for small spaces or for those living in apartments. It complements any decor beautifully.
Sustainable and therapeutic: Handcrafted with eco-friendly materials that promote a greener and more conscious lifestyle. Caring for plants is a relaxing activity, ideal for reducing the stress of everyday life.

Instructions
- Remove the soil and seeds packet. Leave the clay pebbles at the bottom and fill with soil.
- Open the seeds packet, sprinkle a few seeds on top of the soil and slightly cover the seeds until half centimeter.
- Keep the soil moisten but not over-watering (a bottle spray works well).
- Cover with a plastic bag and set in a warm place with natural light but without direct sun.
- Check daily if the soil is moisten. When the seeds germinate (7-14 days), remove the plastic bag and keep in a natural light spot.
- Add water when the soil appears to be dry. When the plants are mature they need water every day.
Cuidados e Dicas
- How long does it take to grow?
Chives can take 8 to 15 days to germinate and between 4 to 6 months before they can be harvested.
- Will it grow back?
Chives are a perennial plant, which means they live for more than two years and regrow annually.
- How often should I water?
Chives prefer moist soil, but not soggy. Check with your finger in the soil: if it feels dry, water close to the soil with about a coffee cup's worth. In summer, more regular watering is needed. Remember that the Grow Cork does not have a drainage hole, and if it retains too much water at the bottom, it may harm the plant.
- Should I place it outside or transfer it to a pot?
Our kits are designed for indoor use, in a location with light and direct sunlight, but they can be placed outdoors as well. It is not necessary to transfer to a pot; the Grow Cork has enough space for the chives to grow.
