DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Blue fenugreek requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and moderate humidity levels. Water the plant when the soil partially dries out, ensuring it does not become waterlogged. This plant is relatively easy to care for but does require some attention to its light and water needs.
Oogst
Trigonella caerulea, commonly known as blue fenugreek, is typically ready for harvest about 90 days after planting. Harvesting should be done when the plant is in full bloom, as this is when the leaves and seeds are most aromatic and flavorful. To harvest, cut the stems just above the ground level. The harvested parts can be used fresh or dried for later use. Ensure that the plants are harvested before the seeds fully mature and start to shatter, as this can lead to loss of seeds.
Bodem
Blue fenugreek prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the plant. A mix of garden soil with some sand and organic matter works well.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for blue fenugreek as it is an annual plant. However, if you are growing it in a container, ensure the pot is large enough to accommodate its root system and has good drainage.
Voortplanting
Blue fenugreek is typically propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the soil after the last frost in spring. Ensure the soil is moist and keep the seeds in a warm, sunny location until they germinate.
Snoeien
Pruning is not required for blue fenugreek. However, you can trim the plant to harvest the leaves and encourage bushier growth.
Toxiciteit
Blue fenugreek is not toxic to pets or humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where pets and children may be present.
Aanvullend
Blue fenugreek is often used in culinary applications for its aromatic leaves and seeds. It can be used fresh or dried and is a common ingredient in spice blends. The plant also has some traditional medicinal uses.
