General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner

Nemesia prefers moist, well-drained soil that's rich in organic matter with a balanced fertilizer and a constant feed program of 150-200 ppm N. Maintain a pH between 5.8 - 6.0. Optimal EC of 1.0 to 1.2.

Flowering

'

Pinching

We recommend that you first pinch 5-10 days after transplanting to your final container. Pinch early and soft to promote good basal branching.

Spacing

Nemesia should be spaced adequately to allow airflow and light penetration between the foliage

Height Control

Use high light intensities to control growth. If needed, Danziger recommends the PGR B-9 3750 / Arest 10 ppm tank mix.

Pests

Whiteflies, aphids, and thrips are the primary problem pests with Nemesia.

Disease

Nesia Inca are not prone to many diseases, but watch for botrytis while the days are short. This grey rot is usually associated with wet or humid conditions. You can prevent botrytis by allowing the plant to dry out between waterings, allowing for good airflow in your greenhouse, and spacing to allow the sun to penetrate to the soil level. The most common chemicals used to treat botrytis are Medallion and Banrot. Use them as a drench according to each label’s instructions.
