The Umbach nur­sery is a 2nd gene­ra­ti­on fami­ly busi­ness in Heil­bronn. After trai­ning as a mar­ket gar­de­ner in his par­ents„ busi­ness, Klaus Umbach joi­n­ed his par­ents“ busi­ness as a mas­ter gar­de­ner and hor­ti­cul­tu­ral tech­ni­ci­an in 1985, which he took over in 1997 with his wife Doris Bur­ger-Umbach, mas­ter gar­de­ner and flo­rist, and con­ti­nuous­ly deve­lo­ped and rede­si­gned. They pro­du­ce over 800,000 pot­ted plants a year accor­ding to Bio­land gui­de­lines and their own mis­si­on state­ment “Healt­hy soil — healt­hy plants — healt­hy peo­p­le”. The plant qua­li­ty, varie­ty and abun­dance of plants is impres­si­ve: flowe­ring pot­ted plants, vege­ta­ble plants, pot­ted herbs, health-pro­mo­ting plants such as Arte­mi­sia annua, hemp, jiao­gu­lan, goji, chi­li, nati­ve wild plants. The Umbach Bio­land nur­sery is a demons­tra­ti­on farm for orga­nic far­ming and is curr­ent­ly trai­ning seven gar­den­ers in orna­men­tal plant cul­ti­va­ti­on.

Con­tents

We pro­vi­de rela­xed edu­ca­ti­on about can­na­bis, out of the cri­mi­nal milieu and fears, as hemp has many posi­ti­ve health effects. Each adult is allo­wed to grow a maxi­mum of three flowe­ring plants. Howe­ver, we are only allo­wed to store 50 g of dried flowers at home. Once the flower has been pro­ces­sed (into oil, but­ter, alco­hol or coo­kies), the­re is no limit. We can grow our own hemp in pots, on our own respon­si­bi­li­ty. Mas­ter gar­de­ner Klaus Umbach gives tips from his prac­ti­cal expe­ri­ence of gro­wing can­na­bis. Important is the pot size, at least 20 liters, a nut­ri­ent-rich sub­stra­te (e.g. depot fer­ti­liza­ti­on with 50 g sheep’s wool pel­lets or raw sheep’s wool), even water sup­p­ly. Hemp is com­ple­te­ly uncom­pli­ca­ted to grow, does not get pests, but needs a sun­ny loca­ti­on, lots of nut­ri­ents and water if you want to har­ve­st a lot. The Bio­land nur­sery sells strong young plants of the best, con­sis­tent orga­nic qua­li­ty. You know what qua­li­ty you are get­ting to test out for yours­elf.
