Instrucciones de cuidado
Gossypium arboreum requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in warm temperatures and moderate humidity. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, but avoid waterlogging. This plant prefers a seasonally dry environment and can tolerate some drought.Suelo
The plant 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 mix of garden soil with sand and organic matter works well.Fertilizante
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically every 4-6 weeks. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers and cotton production.Trasplante
Repot Gossypium arboreum when it outgrows its current container, typically every 2-3 years. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.Propagación
Propagate Gossypium arboreum through seeds or cuttings. For seed propagation, sow seeds in a well-draining soil mix and keep them warm and moist until germination. For cuttings, take a healthy stem cutting, dip it in rooting hormone, and plant it in a moist soil mix.Poda
Prune the plant to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Remove dead or diseased branches and any crossing branches that may cause congestion. Pruning is best done during the dormant season.Toxicidad
Gossypium arboreum is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with any plant, it is advisable to keep it out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.REVOLUCIONE EL CUIDADO DE SUS PLANTAS
