Onderhoudsinstructies
Chicory requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and thrives in moderate temperatures. It prefers moderate humidity levels and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.Oogst
Cichorium intybus, commonly known as chicory, is typically ready for harvest about 85 days after planting. Harvesting should be done when the leaves are tender and before the plant starts to flower. For root harvest, it is best to wait until late fall when the roots have reached their maximum size. To harvest, carefully dig around the plant to avoid damaging the roots, and then lift the plant from the soil. Leaves can be cut with a sharp knife or scissors. Ensure that the harvested parts are cleaned thoroughly to remove any soil or debris.Bodem
Chicory 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.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season to support its development. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to nutrient imbalances.Verpotten
Repot chicory when it outgrows its current container or when the soil becomes compacted. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and fresh loamy soil. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.Voortplanting
Chicory can be propagated by seeds or root cuttings. Sow seeds in early spring or take root cuttings in late winter. Ensure the soil is moist and place the cuttings in a bright location until they establish roots.Snoeien
Prune chicory regularly to remove dead or damaged leaves and to maintain its shape. Pruning also encourages new growth and helps prevent the plant from becoming too leggy.Toxiciteit
Chicory is not toxic to pets or humans. However, some individuals may experience mild digestive discomfort if consumed in large quantities.Aanvullend
Chicory has a long history of use as a coffee substitute and in traditional medicine. Its roots can be roasted and ground to make a caffeine-free coffee alternative. The leaves are also edible and can be used in salads.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
