DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Mandrake requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a temperate climate. The plant should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Humidity levels should be moderate, and the plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors.
Bodem
Mandrake prefers well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be kept relatively dry, as the plant does not tolerate waterlogged conditions. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
Mandrake benefits from a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant sparingly during the growing season to promote healthy growth and root development.
Verpotten
Repot mandrake when the plant outgrows its container or when the soil becomes compacted. Choose a pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix. Handle the root carefully, as it can be fragile.
Voortplanting
Mandrake can be propagated by seed or root division. Sow seeds in the spring, or divide the root during the plant's dormancy period. Ensure that the soil is well-draining and keep the newly propagated plants in a bright, sunny location.
Snoeien
Pruning is not typically required for mandrake. However, you can remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
Toxiciteit
Mandrake is highly toxic, particularly the root and berries. It contains alkaloids that can cause severe poisoning in both humans and pets if ingested. Handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and animals.
Aanvullend
Mandrake has a rich history in folklore and has been associated with various superstitions and magical practices. It was believed to have protective and healing properties, but its toxicity makes it dangerous to use without proper knowledge.
