Growing Tips
Orto Mio guidelines for the species, to be adapted to the variety, local climate, and cultivation in soil or pots.
Exposure and Temperature
Prefer sun. Favorable growth at 10–21 °C; bulb formation and growth require higher temperatures. Strong fluctuations may promote pre-flowering.
Soil and Transplanting
Well-draining soil, pH 6–7; raise beds in heavy soils. Generally 10–15 × 30 cm for bulbs, 5 × 30 cm for sets. Short-day varieties: October–November; long-day: March–May.
Watering
In the early stages, water only if necessary. During drought and bulb swelling, increase regularity, avoiding waterlogging. Adjust watering according to rainfall and soil conditions.
Fertilization
Apply manure in advance, in the previous autumn, avoiding applications close to transplanting. Balanced nutrition during growth.
Care, Harvesting, and Storage
Shallow hoeing. For bulbs to be stored, wait for the natural bending of the stem and the lodging of the leaves. Dry in a ventilated place protected from rain, then store in a dry area, periodically removing any damaged bulbs.
