1. Soil

Artichokes are suitable for growing in loose, fertile, well-drained clay soil. During the breeding period, some leaf mold soil can be added, and some base fertilizer can be mixed into its nutrient soil.

2. Light

It likes light, and full light is more conducive to its growth. It is suitable to be planted in an open, bright and well-ventilated place.

3. Temperature

It is suitable for breeding in places with warm winters and cool summers. The most suitable growth temperature is 13-17℃. Growth will stop if it is below 4℃. When the temperature is high in summer, cooling measures need to be taken to avoid affecting its normal growth. In winter, measures should be taken to keep it warm to prevent it from stopping its growth.

4. Watering

It is afraid of drought, but it is not tolerant of waterlogging. When watering, the amount of water must be controlled and there should be no water accumulation to prevent root rot. . During the flower bud formation period, water consumption is relatively large, and the amount of watering needs to be increased. In summer, spring and autumn, it is generally sufficient to water once every 2-3 days, and in winter, water once every 5 days.

5. Fertilization

It consumes a lot of nutrients during the growth period, so it needs to be fertilized to supplement nutrients. Generally, it is enough to topdress it with fertilizer once a month. Fertilizer can be nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer, or farmyard manure. After fertilization, watering is required immediately, mainly to dilute the fertilizer and avoid fertilizer damage.
