Cosmos bipinnatus, commonly known as garden cosmos, should be harvested when the flowers are fully open but before they start to fade. To harvest, use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the stems early in the morning when the plants are hydrated. Make sure to leave some foliage on the plant to encourage further blooming. Regular deadheading of spent flowers can also promote continuous flowering throughout the growing season.Bodem
Cosmos bipinnatus prefers well-draining soil and can thrive in poor to average soil conditions. A loamy soil mix is ideal. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied once a month during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.Verpotten
