Together with organic farmer Tristan To\u00e9, we started to cultivate various fibre plants such as flax, hemp, ramie, nettles and natural coloured cotton for experimental purposes at Wachtberg near Gars am Kamp (Waldviertel).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The period from May 11 to May 15 is believed to bring a brief spell of colder weather, including the last nightly frosts of the spring. Flax is sown directly, while cotton and ramie are grown in the greenhouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
