Agricultural technology for growing Nemesia seeds
1. Variety selection
When choosing a nemesia variety, the following factors must be taken into account:
- Purpose of cultivation: For cultivation as an ornamental plant, varieties with beautiful flowers are selected, which can be painted in various colors, including white, yellow, orange, pink and purple.
- Winter hardiness: Nemesia is an annual plant that does not tolerate frost.
2. Soil preparation
Nemesia is a light-loving and moisture-loving plant, so to grow it you need to prepare a sunny and well-drained place.
The soil for planting nemesia must be fertile and neutral or slightly acidic.
3. Landing
Nemesia can be grown either by seedlings or by sowing seeds in open ground.
When growing seedlings, nemesia seeds are sown in March-April in seedling boxes or containers. Shoots appear in 7-10 days. Seedlings are planted in separate pots or cups in the phase of 2-3 true leaves. Seedlings are planted in open ground in May-June, when the threat of frost has passed.
When sowing seeds in open ground, the seeds are sown in May-June, when the soil warms up to +15 °C. The seeding depth is 1-2 cm.
4. Plant care
Nemesia is an unpretentious plant, but to obtain good growth and development, the following measures must be taken:
- *Water: Nemesia is a moisture-loving plant, so during the growing season it is necessary to regularly water the plants, especially in hot weather.
- Fertilizing: During the period of active plant growth, 2-3 fertilizing with mineral fertilizers is carried out. The first feeding is carried out in the phase of 3-4 true leaves, the second - in the flowering phase, the third - in the fruiting phase.
- Weeding: It is necessary to weed regularly so that they do not choke the plants.
- Loosening: It is necessary to regularly loosen the soil around the plants to improve aeration and moisture permeability of the soil.
5. Harvest
Nemesia begins to bloom in June-July. Nemesia blooms until the end of autumn.
Additional Tips
- To obtain earlier flowering, nemesia can be grown as seedlings.
- To increase the decorativeness of the plant, you can shape the bush.
Additional information
- Nemesia is an annual plant that can reach a height of 20-40 cm.
- Nemesia flowers come in simple, semi-double and double forms.
- Nemesia is a good honey plant.
