How to grow dandelions

1. Where is it suitable to raise

Dandelion is an Asteraceae plant that can be used as both ornamental and medicinal food. It is actually quite convenient to maintain dandelions at home. Dandelions are more suitable for outdoor environments. If we have a suitable outdoor environment, we can easily cultivate dandelions in potted plants or on the ground. If we cultivate them indoors, we need to consider ventilation and light issues.

2. Lighting

Dandelions need sufficient light throughout their growth, and they can withstand the test of scorching sun.

3. Soil

Dandelions are not very demanding on soil and can grow normally in almost any soil. Of course, loose, fertile sandy loam containing a lot of humus is best.

4. Watering

When caring for dandelions, you need to water them a little more so that the soil in the pot is slightly moist, so that they can grow well.

5. Notes

As long as the ventilation and humidity are appropriate during the maintenance process of dandelions, it will have relatively few diseases and pests; if the environment is bad, powdery mildew or greenhouse whiteflies may occur. If this occurs, you can use natural substances such as tobacco water and garlic juice to control it.
