What is a "seedbed"?
A seedbed is a small, prepared area of soil where seeds are planted to start growing before being moved to a permanent location. It is often created by loosening the soil, removing weeds, and ensuring good drainage and sunlight for the seeds to begin growing. Seedbeds are commonly used for growing young plants, such as vegetables, flowers, or shrubs, until they are strong enough to be transplanted into the garden or field. The environment of a seedbed is carefully controlled to provide ideal conditions for seed growth.
Examples
The gardener prepared a seedbed in the corner of the garden to grow new flowers.
We planted the vegetable seeds in the seedbed before transferring them to the larger garden.
