Agricultural technology for growing Nandina seeds
Nandina (Nandina domestica) is an evergreen shrub that is native to East Asia. The plant is known for its decorative leaves, which can be green, variegated or golden. Nandina is also a good honey plant.
1. Choosing a landing site
Nandina is a light-loving plant that needs 6-8 hours of sunlight per day. The plant also tolerates partial shade well. Nandina does not tolerate drafts and strong winds.
2. Soil
Nandina prefers fertile, well-drained soils with a neutral or slightly acidic reaction. Before planting, it is necessary to dig the soil to a depth of 20-30 cm and add organic fertilizers (humus, compost, peat).
3. Landing
Nandina can be planted from seeds, cuttings or seedlings.
Sowing seeds: Seeds are sown in open ground in spring, when the soil temperature reaches +10 °C. The seeding depth is 2-3 cm. The seeding rate is 20-30 seeds per 1 m².
Cuttings: Cuttings are cut at the beginning of summer and planted in a greenhouse or greenhouse. Rooting occurs within 2-3 weeks.
Planting seedlings: Seedlings are planted in open ground in spring or autumn. Seedlings are planted at a distance of 0.5-1 m from each other.
4. Nandina care
Watering: Nandina needs regular watering, especially in hot weather. It is necessary to water the plant abundantly, without allowing the soil to dry out.
Feeding: Nandina needs regular feeding. It is necessary to feed the plant 2-3 times a month during the growing season. Mineral or organic fertilizers are used for fertilizing.
Pruning: Nandina does not require pruning, but can be done to shape the shrub's crown. Pruning is carried out in spring or autumn.
Diseases and Pests: Nandina is relatively resistant to diseases and pests. However, in some cases, the plant may be attacked by the following pests:
- Spider mite: the pest feeds on the sap of leaves, causing the leaves to turn yellow and fall off. Insecticides are used to control the pest.
- Aphids: the pest feeds on the sap of leaves, causing the leaves to become deformed and fall off. Insecticides are used to control the pest.
5. Reproduction
Nandina is propagated by seeds, cuttings or layering.
Seed propagation: Seed propagation is carried out in the spring.
Cuttings: Cuttings are carried out throughout the growing season.
Layering: Layering can be done in spring or autumn.
Nandina is used to create hedges, borders and other landscape compositions. The plant is also well suited for growing in containers.
