The plant is known for its stimulant properties, as its leaves contain cathinone, an amphetamine-like alkaloid. Khat is traditionally chewed in social settings in some cultures. It prefers seasonally dry tropical climates and is typically found in regions with well-drained soils.

Onderhoudsinstructies
Catha edulis requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a relatively dry environment. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out between waterings. The plant benefits from moderate humidity levels and should be protected from frost.Bodem
Khat prefers well-drained loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be kept relatively dry between waterings to prevent root rot. Good drainage is essential to ensure the plant's health.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is suitable for Catha edulis. Fertilize the plant during the growing season to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to nutrient imbalances.Verpotten
Repot Catha edulis when it outgrows its current container or when the soil becomes compacted. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Repotting is best done during the growing season to minimize stress on the plant.Voortplanting
Catha edulis can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. Seeds should be sown in well-draining soil and kept moist until germination. Cuttings can be taken from healthy, mature plants and rooted in a suitable growing medium.Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and size of Catha edulis. Prune the plant during the dormant season to remove dead or diseased branches and to encourage new growth. Regular pruning helps to keep the plant healthy and vigorous.Toxiciteit
Catha edulis is toxic to pets and humans if ingested in large quantities. The leaves contain cathinone, which can cause stimulant effects and lead to adverse health effects. It is important to keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
