It is loved for its soft and cool feel. It is a very strong and durable material which will last much longer than other alternatives, like cotton. Growing your own linen may see overwhelming, but it helps to break it down into manageable steps.ย

Plant 1 kg. fibre flax seed in a 6m x 6m plot
One plot will give you enough fibre to make a shirt from line (long linen fibres) and tow to weave a couple of towels.ย Your actual yield will depend on growing conditions, how well you weed the plot and how perfect your retting and hackling techniques are.
Broadcast the seed thickly, over well tilled ground and then walk on it to firm the seed in.
Weed it well about 4 weeks after planting.
Your flax will take about 2 weeks to germinate in a cool, wet spring.ย When it reaches just over 5cm in height you should walk into the plot and weed it well.ย You can step on the plants without damaging them when they are between 5cm and 30cm tall.
Admire the blue flax flowers as the linen grows
Once the bed has been weeded well, you can just admire it as it grows.ย About 60 days from planting the flowers start to open.ย It is very beautiful watching the blue flowers swaying in the breeze.ย Each flower is open for only one day. Each stock produces several flowers and each flower turns into a seed boll with 6 to 8 seeds.
100 days after planting, harvest the flax
The stocks of flax will be 2/3rds yellow and 1/3rd still green when it is ready to harvest.ย The flowering will be finished and each slender flax plant will have 4 to 6 seed bolls.ย You harvest the flax by hand, by pulling each plant out by the roots.ย Toss the weeds and place the stems of flax in order.ย Tie into bundles (shooks) about 30cm across, using strong twine.

Water blasters and high-pressure cleaners are fine to use at home until December, but if youโre planning to use a hose with a trigger nozzle to wash down any hard surfaces, you should act fast, as this is prohibited from 1 November.
