Instructions d'entretien

Caraway requires moderate temperatures and should be planted in a location that receives full sun. Water the plant regularly, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Maintain moderate humidity levels and ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.

Récolte

Carum carvi, commonly known as caraway, is typically harvested in its second year of growth when the seeds have fully matured. The optimal time for harvest is when the seed heads turn brown and dry, usually in late summer. To harvest, cut the seed heads and place them in a paper bag or on a drying rack in a well-ventilated area. Once fully dried, the seeds can be threshed by gently rubbing the seed heads. Ensure the seeds are completely dry before storing them in an airtight container to prevent mold and maintain their flavor.

Sol

Caraway prefers well-drained loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of garden soil and compost works well for this plant.

Engrais

Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant once a month during the growing season to promote healthy growth and seed production.

Rempotage

Caraway can be repotted if necessary, usually in the early spring before the growing season begins. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.

Propagation

Caraway can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the garden in early spring or late fall. Ensure the soil is well-prepared and keep it moist until the seeds germinate. Thin the seedlings to allow enough space for growth.

Taille

Pruning is required to maintain the shape and health of the plant. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and stems regularly. Prune the plant after it has finished flowering to encourage new growth and prevent it from becoming leggy.

Toxicité

Caraway is not toxic to pets or humans. However, consuming large quantities of the seeds may cause digestive discomfort. The plant is generally safe to handle and grow in gardens.

Supplémentaire

Caraway is known for its culinary uses, particularly in baking and cooking. The seeds have a warm, slightly peppery flavor and are often used in bread, cheese, and meat dishes. The plant also has medicinal properties and has been used traditionally to aid digestion and relieve bloating.
