Jicama requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and prefers moderate temperatures. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. The plant benefits from a warm climate and should be protected from frost.Урожай
Pachyrhizus erosus, commonly known as jicama, is typically ready for harvest about 150 days after planting. The tubers should be harvested when they reach a suitable size, usually between 4 to 6 months after planting. To harvest, carefully dig around the base of the plant to avoid damaging the tubers. The best time to harvest is during the dry season to prevent the tubers from rotting. After harvesting, the tubers should be cleaned and stored in a cool, dry place. It is important to note that only the tubers are edible; the seeds and other parts of the plant contain toxic compounds and should not be consumed.Земля
Jicama prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.Удобрения
A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 is recommended for jicama. Fertilize the plant every few weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and tuber development.Пересадка
Repot jicama when the plant outgrows its container or when the soil becomes compacted. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh, nutrient-rich soil. Repotting is best done during the early growing season.Распространение
Jicama can be propagated from seeds or tuber cuttings. Sow seeds directly in the soil after the last frost, or plant tuber cuttings with at least one bud. Ensure the soil is warm and moist to encourage germination and root development.Обрезка
Pruning is necessary to manage the plant's climbing habit and to encourage tuber growth. Trim back excessive vine growth and remove any dead or damaged leaves. Pruning is best done during the growing season.Токсичность
While the tuberous root of jicama is edible, other parts of the plant, including the seeds and leaves, contain toxic compounds and should not be consumed. These parts are toxic to both pets and humans if ingested.Дополнительный
Jicama is a versatile plant that can be grown in gardens or large containers. It is important to provide support for the climbing vines, such as a trellis or stakes. Regular monitoring for pests and diseases will help ensure a healthy plant.РЕВОЛЮЦИОНИРУЙТЕ УХОД ЗА РАСТЕНИЯМИ
