1. Ukumisa ishedi yakho ekungeneni kokufuma, okokuqala kufuneka ulungelelanise uphahla. Sika umphezulu wengxowa yakho yomgquba ngononophelo kwaye ukhuphe umhlaba kwixesha elizayo. Emva koko yenza iphepha leplastiki kwisikhwama ngokuqhawula umthungo osecaleni. Yisebenzise ukugquma uphahla lweshedi, uqinisekise ukuba kukho ukuxhoma kancinane kuyo yonke indlela. Unokufuna iingxowa ezininzi ngokuxhomekeke kubukhulu bophahla. Ukuba kunjalo, qinisekisa ukuba ezona bhegi ziphezulu zondlalwe ngaphezulu ukuze ukhuphe amanzi. Gcoba isigqumathelo kwisakhelo sophahla lweshedi ngeentsimbi zokufulela, malunga ne-20cm nganye.

2. Ukuqala ngaphambili (elona cala lisezantsi lophahla), yenza umlinganiselo uze unqumle ubude ukusuka kwibhodi yokuhombisa ukuze ilingane. Ukuyibambela kwishedi, imingxuma yokulingwa kwangaphambili eya kuthi ingene kuzo zombini ibhodi ehonjisiweyo nakwisakhelo sophahla seshedi. Imingxuma kufuneka ibe malunga ne-15cm ukuqelelana kwaye yombiwe kumzantsi wesithathu webhodi ukuze izinze. Usebenzisa izikrufu zomthi zangaphandle, jija endaweni. Phinda kwelinye icala (eliphezulu) ekupheleni. Emva koko icala ngalinye kula mabini. Xa zone zisendaweni, yomba imingxuma eyi-2cm yedayamitha kweyona ndawo isezantsi (malunga ne-15cm ukuqelelana) ukunceda ukukhupha amanzi.

3. Ukongeza amandla kwisakhiwo, faka ibhloko encinci yokhuni kwikona nganye, kwaye usebenzisa i-drill, uphinde wenze imingxuma yokulinga ehamba ngeebhloko kunye nesakhelo esitsha. Bamba kwindawo enezikrufu zomthi zangaphandle.

4. Ukuphucula ukuthuthwa kwamanzi, galela umaleko wegrabile (2-3cm ubunzulu) kwifreyimu — usengasebenzisa ukucandwa kwamatye kwindlela yakho yokuhamba okanye nawaphi na amatye amancinci onokuwafumana xa uhamba. Oku kuya kunceda ukuphefumla izityalo.

5. Thintela umgquba ukutshona kwigrabile ngokusika icwecwe elidala okanye isiciko se-duvet ngokobukhulu kwaye usibeke ngaphakathi kwefreyimu. Oku kuya kunceda nokunqanda ukhula.

6. Gcwalisa isakhelo sakho nge-compost eneenjongo ezininzi - xuba nayo nayiphi na igrabile eshiyekileyo yokukhupha amanzi. I-bark chips nayo iya kusebenza ukuba unayo egadini yakho. Ukuba ishedi yakho indala kwaye ayikwazi ukuthatha ubunzima bomhlaba, beka izityalo ezifakwe emanzini kwigrabile endaweni yoko kwaye ujikeleze nge-bark chippings.

Imbalela kunye neentlobo ezikwaziyo ukumelana nomoya zisebenza kakuhle. Izityalo ezinophahla oluluhlaza ziquka i-sedums kunye ne-succulents, kodwa kufanelekile ukuzama ingca efana ne-Stipa. Izityalo ezifana ne-oregano zisebenza kakuhle, kwaye iintyatyambo ezikhula kancinci ezifana ne-saxifrages zikulungele ukutsala inambuzane kunye ne-butterfies. Ukugcina uphahla lwakho lugcinwe kakuhle, amanzi kuphela ngamaxesha omileyo, njengoko uphahla oluluhlaza lunokongeza ubunzima obungeyomfuneko kwisakhiwo. Susa ukhula olungafunekiyo kwaye ujonge imingxuma yokuhambisa amanzi ayivalwanga. Buyisela iinkuni rhoqo ekwindla ngokubrasha iinkuni zigcinwe kwisakhiwo somthi. Fafaza i-compost egcwele isandla kwisityalo ngasinye ekupheleni kobusika/entlakohlaza ukonyusa izinga lezondlo.
