DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Melilotus indicus is relatively easy to care for. It prefers full sun and moderate temperatures. Watering should be done when the soil is almost completely dry. The plant does well in average humidity levels and does not require special humidity conditions.
Oogst
Melilotus indicus, commonly known as small melilot or annual yellow sweet clover, is typically harvested when it reaches full bloom, which is usually around 90 days after planting. To harvest, cut the plant at the base, just above the soil level, using a sharp knife or shears. It is best to harvest in the morning after the dew has dried but before the heat of the day to preserve the plant's essential oils. Ensure that the harvested plants are dried properly in a well-ventilated area to prevent mold and maintain quality.
Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but thrives best in soils that are not too compacted. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 can be applied during the growing season. Fertilize sparingly, as the plant does not require high nutrient concentrations.
Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for Melilotus indicus as it is an annual plant. However, if grown in containers, ensure the pot is large enough to accommodate its growth and has good drainage.
Voortplanting
Melilotus indicus can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds in early spring after the last frost. The seeds can be directly sown into the soil or started indoors and transplanted later.
Snoeien
Pruning is not required for this plant. However, you can trim back any dead or damaged stems to maintain its appearance.
Toxiciteit
Melilotus indicus is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with any plant, it is best to prevent pets and children from ingesting it.
