DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Dioon edule requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a dry environment. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Maintain moderate humidity levels and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
Bodem
Dioon edule prefers well-draining loam soil. Ensure the soil mix has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of sand and organic matter can be beneficial for this plant.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, and reduce feeding during the dormancy period.
Verpotten
Repot Dioon edule every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Handle the roots carefully to avoid damage during repotting.
Voortplanting
Propagate Dioon edule through seeds or offsets. Seeds should be sown in a well-draining soil mix and kept in a warm, bright location. Offsets can be separated from the parent plant and potted individually.
Snoeien
Pruning is generally not required for Dioon edule. Remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
Toxiciteit
Dioon edule is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always advisable to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to avoid any accidental ingestion.
