|
| Sowing Time: | |
Early January to April
|
|
| Sowing Method: | |
3-5 seeds per plug, can be sown directly into final pots
|
|
| Germination: | |
10-12 days at 18-20 °C, in media with low soluble salt levels and pH: 5.8-6.5. Cover seed lightly with vermiculite after sowing. Keep soil steadily moist but not wet.
|
|
| Plug Culture: | |
From Stage II* reduce the soil moisture, but the plug should not dry out and reduce the temperature to 15-18 °C. Do not let soluble salt level rise above 0,75 EC. Start fertilization at 50-75 ppm nitrogen in a well balanced formula. During Stage III and Stage IV fertilization levels can be increased to 150 ppm.
|
|
| Growing On: | |
4-5 weeks after the sowing transplant 1 plug into a pot (8-9 cm) or pack. 2-4 plants into bigger pot (9-12 cm).
|
|
| Media: | |
Use a well-drained, growing substrate with 20-30 % clay, 1,5 kg/m³ complete balanced fertilizer, iron-chelate, micronutrients, pH: 5.8-6.5.
|
|
| Temperature: | |
Grow at 10-12 °C. The lower the cultivation temperature the more compact is the growth of the plants. Protect outdoor with fleece cover against late frost.
|
|
| Fertilization: | |
Moderate fertilization levels are required. Fertilize the crop weekly with 100-150 ppm nitrogen, using a complete balanced fertilizer. Avoid high ammonium levels and high nitrogen levels. Prevent magnesium deficiency by applying magnesium sulphate (0,025 %) 1-2 times and in case of iron deficiency (above pH 6.0) apply iron-chelate for 1-2 times. Wetness and cold temperatures in substrate cause for iron deficiency.
|
|
| Cultural Hints: | |
Plants for the pot production can be produced outdoor at 15x30 cm. Do not produce more than 20 plants/m². In early spring assimilation light is necessary for a good crop.
|
|
Hint
The cultural recommendations are based on results from trials conducted under Central European conditions. Different conditions in other parts of the world may lead to deviations in results achieved.
