Maintenance skills and planting conditions of chamomile

1. Sowing: Sowing in autumn and winter is better. When sowing, we must first ensure the moisture in the soil, and then sprinkle the seeds on it. Its seeds are very small, so it doesn't need to be covered with soil. Just keep the soil moist and ventilated.

2. Soil: This is a common feature of Compositae plants. Compared with other compositae plants, chamomile is more resistant to strong light and does not need shading in summer. However, pot friends still try to avoid direct sunlight in summer, otherwise the plants will be dehydrated and dried because the soil temperature rises too fast and the water in the soil evaporates seriously. If possible, I suggest you plant it in the ground, because plants with sufficient sunlight are stronger, more branched, with bright flowers and strong fragrance.

3. Pruning: In the growth process of chamomile, in order to make it have a better column shape, topping can be carried out to promote the growth of side branches and produce more flowers.

4, pests and diseases: chamomile has fewer pests and diseases. Only by controlling the density and ensuring ventilation and light can diseases be avoided. If the planting density is too high or the environmental humidity is too high due to continuous rainfall, fungal diseases will occur, which can be treated by spraying bordeaux mixture and other drugs. If the soil of the ground plants is too sticky, dig drainage ditches to promote drainage and avoid water accumulation and rotten roots. Chamomile is also often affected by aphids and moth larvae, both of which can be killed with pesticides.
