Product description
Planting blue ternate (Clitoria ternatea), also known as butterfly pea, is straightforward and rewarding. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:
1. Choose the Right Location
•Sunlight: Select a spot that receives full sun (at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily).
•Soil: Ensure well-draining soil; it can tolerate a variety of soil types but prefers loamy or sandy soil.
2. Prepare the Soil
•Soil Testing: Ideally, test the soil pH; blue ternate prefers a pH of 6.0 to 7.0.
•Amendments: Mix in compost or well-rotted manure to enhance soil fertility and drainage.
3. Sowing Seeds
•Seed Preparation: Soak seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to help with germination.
•Depth: Sow seeds about 1 inch deep.
•Spacing: Space seeds about 12-18 inches apart to allow for growth.
4. Watering
•Initial Watering: Water the seeds gently after planting. Keep the soil consistently moist until they germinate.
•Ongoing Care: Once established, blue ternate is relatively drought-tolerant, but regular watering during dry spells will help.
5. Care and Maintenance
•Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
•Fertilizing: Fertilize lightly with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season if needed.
6. Pest and Disease Management
•Monitor: Check for common pests like aphids and caterpillars.
•Treatment: Use organic pest control methods if necessary.
7. Supporting Growth
•Trellising: Blue ternate is a climbing plant, so provide support with trellises, fences, or other structures as it grows.
8. Harvesting
•Timing: You can start harvesting flowers when they bloom, typically about 60-90 days after planting.
