DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Sesame plants require bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. They thrive in warm temperatures and moderate humidity. Water the plants when the soil is almost completely dry, but avoid waterlogging. Sesame plants are relatively easy to care for but do require some attention to their light and water needs.
Oogst
Sesamum indicum, commonly known as sesame, is typically ready for harvest about 90 to 130 days after planting, with the average being around 110 days. Harvesting should be done when the leaves start to yellow and fall off, and the seed pods begin to turn brown but before they split open. Cut the plants at the base and bundle them together, then hang them upside down in a dry, well-ventilated area to allow the seeds to fully mature and dry. Once the pods are completely dry, they can be threshed to release the seeds. Ensure that the seeds are thoroughly dried before storage to prevent mold and spoilage.
Bodem
Sesame plants prefer well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the plant. A sandy loam mix is ideal for sesame cultivation.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plants moderately during the growing season to support healthy growth and seed production.
Verpotten
Sesame plants are typically grown outdoors and do not require repotting. However, if grown in containers, repot them when they outgrow their current pot, ensuring the new pot has good drainage.
Voortplanting
Sesame plants are propagated from seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the soil after the last frost when the soil has warmed up. Ensure the seeds are planted in a sunny location with well-draining soil.
Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to encourage bushier growth and to remove any dead or diseased parts of the plant. Prune the plants during the growing season to maintain their shape and health.
Toxiciteit
Sesame plants are not toxic to pets or humans. The seeds are widely consumed and are safe to eat.
Aanvullend
Sesame plants are known for their drought tolerance and can thrive in areas with limited water availability. They are also relatively pest-resistant, making them a low-maintenance crop for many growers.
