DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Crimson Clover thrives in full sunlight and requires moderate temperatures. It prefers soil that dries out partially between waterings and does well in environments with moderate humidity. This plant is relatively easy to care for and is well-suited for outdoor growth.
Oogst
Crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum) is typically harvested when the flowers are in full bloom, which usually occurs about 70-90 days after planting. To harvest, cut the plants at the base using a sickle or scythe, or with mechanical harvesters for larger fields. It is important to harvest before the seeds fully mature and shatter to ensure maximum yield and quality. After cutting, the plants should be left to dry in the field for a few days before being collected and stored. Proper drying is essential to prevent mold and ensure the longevity of the harvested material.
Bodem
Crimson Clover prefers loamy soil with good drainage. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in moderately fertile soil. Ensure the soil is well-draining to prevent waterlogging.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 is suitable for Crimson Clover. Fertilize the plant during its growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for Crimson Clover as it is typically grown outdoors. However, if grown in containers, repotting can be done in the early spring before the growing season begins.
Voortplanting
Crimson Clover can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds in early spring or late summer for best results. Ensure the soil is moist and well-draining during the germination period.
Snoeien
Pruning is not required for Crimson Clover. However, you can trim the plant back after flowering to encourage new growth and maintain its shape.
Toxiciteit
Crimson Clover is not toxic to pets or humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where pets and children may be present.
Aanvullend
Crimson Clover is often used in crop rotation systems to improve soil health due to its nitrogen-fixing capabilities. It also attracts beneficial insects, making it a valuable addition to any garden.
