Production Method:

Soil preparation and seed planting

In the area where Giresun Nettle is grown, 2 tons of burnt farm manure and 100 kg of lime are applied to the surface. After cultivating the soil at a depth of 20-30 cm in March-April, when the soil moisture is suitable, the clods formed in the soil are broken by raking and a smooth soil surface is created. Seed planting time is May. Seeds obtained from the previous period are sown at a rate of 500 g per decare, and soil is spread on it and pressed with a roller. Sowing depth should be 1-1.5 cm. Nettle seeds germinate in 10-15 days at a temperature of about 20℃.

Irrigation

Since Giresun province is extremely rainy and humid, there is no need for irrigation. After planting the seeds, they are watered once a week if the season is dry.

Harvest

Harvest varies according to production purpose. Vegetable Harvest: Giresun Nettle reaches the appropriate maturity for vegetable harvest 45-60 days after planting. In the leafy period before flowering, the leaves in the first three nodes from the top leaf to the bottom are harvested by hand or with scissors and offered for sale fresh in plastic packages. The products obtained from this harvest are stored in a dry and cool environment.

Seed Harvest: The matured seeds are harvested by hand scraping. It is placed in plastic packaging and offered for sale.

Fiber Harvest: In cultivation for fiber production, the harvest is carried out after the 2nd year after planting. The fibers obtained from the first year are thin and not durable, and since the plant is branched, the fiber quality is very low. High-yield fiber harvest occurs in the 4th year. The total harvest period is up to the 10th year after planting. Harvesting is done by hand or machine by plucking it from the soil surface level. The entire plant is harvested and used in fiber production. Plants harvested as fiber are stored in a cool, dry environment until processed for fiber extraction.
