"FLAT" PARTLY FILLED 



WITH PREPARED 



COMPOST 



The "flat" is partly filled, on top 

 of the layer of gravel, with specially 

 prepared soil, which is then tamped 

 down with a board, making a flat sur- 

 face on which the seeds are sown. The 

 seeds are covered to about twice their 

 diameter with light, sifted compost.
