Instructions d'entretien

Button Medick is relatively easy to care for. It prefers bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. The plant does well in environments with average humidity and should be watered when the soil is almost completely dry. It is well-suited for outdoor growth.

Récolte

Medicago orbicularis, commonly known as button medic, is typically ready for harvest around 90 days after planting. Harvesting should be done when the seed pods are fully mature and dry, usually indicated by a change in color to a brown or tan hue. The pods can be collected by hand or using mechanical harvesters. It is important to ensure that the pods are fully dry to prevent mold and ensure proper storage. After harvesting, the seeds should be cleaned and stored in a cool, dry place to maintain viability.

Sol

Medicago orbicularis thrives in well-draining loam soil. The soil should be allowed to dry out almost completely between waterings to prevent root rot. Good drainage is essential for the plant's health.

Engrais

A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 is suitable for Button Medick. Fertilize the plant during its growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.

Rempotage

As an annual plant, Medicago orbicularis does not typically require repotting. However, if grown in containers, ensure the pot has good drainage and repot if the plant outgrows its container.

Propagation

Button Medick can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds in well-draining soil during the spring. Keep the soil moist until germination occurs, which usually takes a couple of weeks.

Taille

Pruning is not necessary for Medicago orbicularis. However, you can trim back any dead or damaged foliage to maintain the plant's appearance.

Toxicité

Medicago orbicularis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. It is generally considered safe to grow in gardens and around animals.
