Anethum graveolens, commonly known as dill, is an annual herb in the celery family Apiaceae. It is native to the Mediterranean and West Asia. Dill is known for its feathery green leaves and is often used as a culinary herb. It does not have a dormancy period and grows quickly, making it a popular choice for herb gardens.
Dill requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and prefers moderate temperatures. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. Dill can be grown both indoors and outdoors.
محصول
Anethum graveolens, commonly known as dill, is typically ready for harvest about 70 days after planting. Harvesting can begin when the plant reaches about 12 inches in height. For the best flavor, it is recommended to harvest dill leaves in the morning after the dew has dried but before the heat of the day. Snip the leaves close to the stem, and avoid taking more than one-third of the plant at a time to ensure continued growth. Dill seeds can be harvested when the flower heads turn brown and the seeds are easily shaken off. Cut the flower heads and place them in a paper bag to dry completely before storing.
تربة
Dill prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the plant. A standard potting mix with added sand or perlite can improve drainage.
سماد
Dill benefits from a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-5. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth.
إعادة السمعة
Repot dill when it outgrows its current container, typically once a year. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, place it in the new pot, and fill in with fresh soil.
الانتشار
Dill can be propagated from seeds. Sow seeds directly into the soil in early spring or late summer. Ensure the soil is moist and keep the seeds in a warm, sunny location. Thin seedlings to allow adequate space for growth.
تشذيب
Prune dill regularly to encourage bushier growth and prevent it from becoming leggy. Pinch off the top leaves and flower buds to promote leaf production. Pruning also helps to extend the harvest period.
تسمم
Dill is not toxic to pets or humans. All parts of the plant are safe to handle and consume. However, some individuals may experience skin irritation from handling the plant.
إضافي
Dill is a great companion plant for vegetables like cabbage and onions, as it can help repel pests. It also attracts beneficial insects like ladybugs and bees, which can aid in pollination and pest control.
