Bed in partial shade

Raised bed · 160 × 80 cm · 3 crops

Leafy crops cope with few hours of sun. Chard and chervil would rather skip the midday heat anyway.

How the year looks

Calculated, not drawn. One patch is used twice — which is the whole point.

Zürich serves as the reference: USDA zone 8a, last frost around week 17, first frost around week 43. Take the bed over and everything is recalculated with your frost dates.
