Pflegehinweise
Salvia columbariae prefers full sun and can tolerate dry conditions. It thrives in moderate temperatures and does not require high humidity. Watering should be infrequent, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This plant is relatively easy to care for and is well-suited for outdoor growth in subtropical climates.Ernte
Salvia columbariae, commonly known as chia, is typically ready for harvest about 90 days after planting. The best time to harvest is when the flowers have dried and the seeds have matured, usually in late spring to early summer. To harvest, cut the flower heads and place them in a paper bag to dry further. Once fully dried, gently shake or rub the flower heads to release the seeds. Ensure the seeds are completely dry before storing them in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and spoilage.Boden
