DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Coccinia grandis requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and moderate humidity levels. Water the plant regularly, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Ensure the plant has support to climb, such as a trellis or fence.
Récolte
Coccinia grandis, commonly known as ivy gourd, is typically harvested when the fruits are young and tender, usually around 90 days after planting. The fruits should be picked when they are about 2-3 inches long and still green, as they become bitter when they mature and turn red. Harvesting is done by hand, using a gentle twisting motion to avoid damaging the vine. It is important to harvest regularly to encourage continuous fruit production. The plant thrives in seasonally dry tropical climates and requires well-drained soil and full sunlight for optimal growth.
Sol
The plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support its growth. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and fruit production.
Rempotage
Repot the plant every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh, well-draining soil. Repotting is best done in the early growing season.
Propagation
Coccinia grandis can be propagated through seeds or stem cuttings. For seed propagation, sow the seeds in a well-draining soil mix and keep them moist until germination. For stem cuttings, take a healthy cutting and plant it in moist soil, keeping it in a warm, bright location until roots develop.
Taille
Prune the plant regularly to control its growth and shape. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and stems. Pruning is best done during the growing season to encourage new growth and prevent the plant from becoming too leggy.
Toxicité
Coccinia grandis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always advisable to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent accidental ingestion.
Supplémentaire
Coccinia grandis is a fast-growing plant that can quickly cover trellises, fences, and other structures. It is often grown for its edible fruits, which are used in various culinary dishes. The plant can also be used as a natural screen or ground cover in gardens.
