DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Guizotia abyssinica requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, but avoid waterlogging. This plant is best suited for outdoor cultivation in regions with a warm climate.
Récolte
Guizotia abyssinica, commonly known as Niger seed, is typically ready for harvest about 120 days after planting. The plant is harvested when the flower heads turn brown and dry. To harvest, cut the flower heads and allow them to dry further if necessary. Once fully dried, the seeds can be threshed by hand or using mechanical means. It is important to ensure that the seeds are fully dry before storage to prevent mold and spoilage.
Sol
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 and compost can provide the necessary nutrients.
Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to support healthy growth and seed production.
Rempotage
As an annual plant, Guizotia abyssinica does not require repotting. However, if you are starting the plant from seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings to the garden once they are strong enough and the risk of frost has passed.
Propagation
Guizotia abyssinica is propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the garden after the last frost or start them indoors a few weeks before the last frost date. Ensure the seeds are planted in well-draining soil and receive adequate sunlight.
Taille
Pruning is not necessary for Guizotia abyssinica. However, you can remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
Toxicité
Guizotia abyssinica is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. The seeds are commonly used in bird feed and for producing edible oil.
Supplémentaire
Guizotia abyssinica is a valuable crop in many regions due to its oil-rich seeds. The plant also attracts pollinators, making it beneficial for the garden ecosystem. Ensure it receives adequate sunlight and water for optimal growth.
