Cultivation of Gladiolus flower

 
 
Climate
1) Gladiolus require an average rainfall 2000-2500 mm / year.
2) Gladiolus plants require full sunlight for growth and development. Less than optimal circumstances will cause interest dry and do not form normal floret. Lack of light occurs at the time of leaf formation to the 5, 6, and 7, which causes drought Just look at the flower bud. Kultifat Eurovision, Peter, Friendship, Jessica and Mascagni less sensitive to sunlight.
3) Plant gladiolus grow well at air temperature of 10-25 degrees C. Average air temperature less than 10 degrees C will cause the growth and stunted plant growth, plant growth if it lasts long can be stopped. The maximum air temperature gladiolus growth was 27 degrees C, can sometimes adapt to the air temperature 40 degrees C, when soil moisture and plant are relatively high.
 
Nurseries
Seeds can be derived from generative breeding, vegetative, and tissue culture. Generally, seedlings derived from vegetative and tissue culture faster results can be plucked from the nursery with a generative way.
1) Requirements for Seed
Seeds of good seed corms produce flowers minimum diameter 2.5 cm, except for the cultivar Golden Boy sufficient diameter 1 cm. Seedlings should choose a healthy, not disabled. A good vegetative seedlings that have the power more than 90% germination. Generative seeds must come from the parent with good growth and age.
2) Preparation of Seeds
Duplication of generative gladiolus seeds, is used to obtain cultivars not only for the purposes of seed production. Seeds obtained by pollinating assisted artificial human. Vegetative propagation is done by using a bulb gladiolus (child corm), seed split (split corms), tissue culture and cell suspension. Tuber and seedling tubers taken from plants that have been harvested. Tissue culture techniques is one alternative way to overcome the constraints in conventional propagation. Seeds (corms) needed for 1 hectares of land is approximately 213,063 units.
 
Subang and the Earring of children who will be unable to immediately grow seedlings if grown despite the growing environment is appropriate and optimal, because require a period of dormancy. During the period of dormancy and kids Earring Earring which has been dry stored in a well air wing and avoid direct sunlight. Subang who have been separated from the trunk stored for 2 weeks.
 
 
Maintenance Nurseries / seeding
Planting gladiolus corms child seedlings emerging from the stolonEarring Earring connecting the parent with the new. Propagation by using child corms about 1.0 cm in diameter require 2 times planting to reach the size of the corms that can generate interest. The first planting of the corms child takes about 4 months until the harvest of small corms. Subang small first harvest will be about 2 cm in diameter. Small Earring after harvest will experience a period of dormancy of at least 3.5 months. After a period of dormancy passed, the small corms can be planted again. The time required for the second planting is approximately equal to the time the first planting. Subang from the second crop will be 3 cm in diameter and is the seed ready to bloom. For each cultivar an average of gladiolus, a child who Earring about 1 cm in diameter will be ready to seed corm flowering in 16 months.
 
Seed removal

Gladiolus seedling planting through a period of dormancy when it is characterized by root emergence in the form of small white bumps at the bottom of the circular Earring. The outbreak of dormancy is also marked by the emergence of buds. When shoots reached a height of 1 cm, then the corms planting. Plantations late causing the higher shoots and roots become longer, so would have damaged roots at planting time,
 
 Determination of Planting Pattern Plant gladiolus can be planted with or without guludan guludan system. If  leb irrigation use, the planting should be with irrigation does not damage the soil structure. Some things to know  in the way of planting is a place and time of planting and spacing and  depth of plants. Place planting gladiolus should be exposed to sunlight directly. The roof is translucent plastic and is used to clean  avoid damage due to rain. Planting schedules adjusted  requirement ranges from 60-80 days.
