| Cultivation recommendations Normal Cultivation |
Potting and spacing
Size of pot:10.5 - 12 cm; weeks 1-8; 30 - 45 plants per sqm (Concept series) For baskets: weeks 2 - 6, 5 plants per basket (Planet-series)
Growing medium
A well drained peatmitxture with at least 10% clay; add 2,5 – 3,0 kg slowrelease fertiliser. PH 5,6 – 5,8. feeding In the starting phase a fosfate enriched fertiliser will develop strong root system. When plants has a well developed rootsystem we can change to a multi-element fertiliser with a balanced N-P-K level. Avoid EC over 2,9 mS.
Temperature
Potting + 3 weeks of cultivation:
20°C Main growing phase: 17 °C
Hardening: 14°C
(Average temperatures during day)
Cool Morning:
Recommendable for compact growth. Start to use after the initial growing phase
Watering
A relatively dry cultivation tends to produce compact plants and early flowering
Plant is particularly sensitive to standing in stagnant water.
Light
Very light and airy
Pinching
Double pinch on 2 pairs of leaves, only pinch when plant is well developed and flower is shown in main stem.
Retardants
Not necessary
P & D control
