During the spring months let’s fertilize our plants periodically, every 15-20 days, using a fertilizer rich in nitrogen. When desired, it is also possible to use a slow release fertilizer, to add to the soil every 3-4 months. Light Yellow gentian
These plants aren't afraid of the cold weather and can be grwon in the garden throughout the whole year. The Yellow gentian should be preferably located in a place where it can have at least a few hours a day of direct solar light.Since the foliage is used to be eaten, let’s use specific insecticides and anticryptogamics, far from the harvest period. Water Yellow gentian
Let's water abundantly, moistening the soil deeply with 2-3 glasses of water , but let's act only when the substratum is dry, leaving it dry even for 2-3 weeks before watering it. Medicinal plants can be used fresh or dehydrated; if we want to harvest them to put them aside dehydrated, let’s get information regarding the balsamic period of the plant we have chosen, rather when the plant has a higher quantity of active principles. Pests Yellow gentian
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture. Mold Yellow gentian
Let’s prefer dissolved soils, with an excellent drainage.
