Vicia sativa, commonly known as the common vetch, is a scrambling annual plant in the Fabaceae family. It is native to Europe and Western Asia but has been widely naturalized in other regions. It is often used as a cover crop or green manure due to its nitrogen-fixing abilities. The plant prefers temperate climates and can be found in fields, roadsides, and waste areas.

Instructions d'entretien
Common vetch requires moderate temperatures and bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers soil that dries out partially between waterings and thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Ensure the plant is kept in a location where it can receive ample sunlight and maintain a consistent watering schedule.Récolte
Common vetch (Vicia sativa) is typically harvested when the pods are fully mature and have turned brown, which usually occurs about 90 days after planting. Harvesting should be done before the pods shatter to avoid seed loss. The plants can be cut and left to dry in the field for a few days before threshing to separate the seeds. Ensure that the seeds are fully dry before storage to prevent mold and spoilage.Sol
Vicia sativa prefers well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot and other moisture-related issues.Engrais
Fertilize Vicia sativa with a balanced fertilizer, such as 5-10-10, during the growing season. This will help support its growth and nitrogen-fixing capabilities. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, as the plant can fix its own nitrogen.Rempotage
Repotting is generally not necessary for Vicia sativa as it is an annual plant. However, if grown in containers, ensure the pot is large enough to accommodate its growth and has good drainage. Repot at the beginning of the growing season if needed.Propagation
Vicia sativa can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly into the soil in early spring after the last frost. Ensure the soil is well-prepared and kept moist until germination occurs. Thin the seedlings to allow adequate space for growth.Taille
Pruning is not typically required for Vicia sativa. However, you can trim back any excessive growth to maintain a tidy appearance and prevent the plant from becoming too leggy.Toxicité
Vicia sativa is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The seeds and foliage contain compounds that can cause digestive upset and other symptoms. It is important to keep this plant out of reach of children and animals.Supplémentaire
Vicia sativa is often used in agricultural settings for its nitrogen-fixing abilities, which can improve soil fertility. It is also beneficial for attracting pollinators and providing habitat for beneficial insects. When used as a cover crop, it can help prevent soil erosion and suppress weeds.RÉVOLUTIONNEZ LE SOIN DE VOS PLANTES
