EINZELHEITEN

Pflegehinweise
Citrus microcarpa requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a humid environment. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
Ernte
Citrus microcarpa, commonly known as calamondin or calamansi, typically takes about 180 days from flowering to fruit maturity. Harvesting is best done when the fruits are fully colored, usually bright orange, and slightly soft to the touch. Use pruning shears or scissors to cut the fruit from the tree, leaving a small portion of the stem attached to avoid damaging the fruit. It is important to handle the fruits gently to prevent bruising. Regular harvesting encourages continuous fruit production.
Boden
The plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains some moisture but does not become waterlogged. A mix of garden soil, compost, and sand works well. Ensure the soil pH is slightly acidic to neutral.
Dünger
Use a balanced citrus fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-2-6. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the dormancy period.
Umtopfen
Repot Citrus microcarpa every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is one size larger and ensure it has good drainage. Repot in the early spring before the growing season begins.
Vermehrung
Propagate the plant through seeds or cuttings. For cuttings, take a healthy stem cutting in the spring or early summer, dip it in rooting hormone, and plant it in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist and provide bright, indirect light until roots develop.
Beschneidung
Prune the plant to maintain its shape and remove any dead or diseased branches. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Regular pruning encourages healthy growth and fruit production.
Toxizität
Citrus microcarpa is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the fruit's acidic juice can cause mild irritation if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes.
Zusätzlich
To encourage fruiting, ensure the plant receives adequate sunlight and is not exposed to extreme temperature fluctuations. Regularly check for pests such as aphids and spider mites, and treat them promptly if found.
