Plants Marygold for Chrysanthemum












Marygold including wet crops and plants grown as annuals. Already found some cultivars marygold by color bars, flower color, flower size and height plant. 
In California. Marygold planted to produce seed, whereas usually harvested in bud form plant flower and as well as decorative pots and garden. Marygold has a/ distinctive smell but it does not smell like roses. The flowers can be used to make the writing on the name board known as Blumen stick brand. 
Specially Marygoold requires no maintenance. Nutrients obtained from the residual fertilizer plants marygold diapers because usually grown mixed with seasonal crops. Marygold usually planted in a narrow area, not specifically or just fill in vacant land. Interest Rates marygold very cheap, but if already a decoration in the form of signage, the price goes up exponentially. 
Naturally marygold plants favored by different types of pests, such as red mites, penggorok leaves, swollen roots and nematodes. Marygold vulnerable nature of the benefit to farmers, which can be used as a trap crop when grown in mixture. In the cultivation of chrysanthemums, marygold planted in the midst of beds as a trap crop of red mites that attack the chrysanthemum. 
Red mites on chrysanthemum plants 
Red mite (Tetranychus sp.) Is one of the pest on chrysanthemum. During vegetative growth, the attack appears on the lower leaf surface, but after the flowers bloom, mites move to the flowers as shelter, breeding grounds, and foraging. 
Development of the mite takes place rapidly after anthesis, because watering is only done on the ground saj. Leaves and flowers are not watered so that flowers are not damaged. 
Thus it is common practice to use pesticide off these pests, pest control usually can fail because of mite was resistant. Control of mites can be distinguished in several ways, namely the use of healthy seedlings are not infected with mites, chemical means and manner of technical culture. 
To take advantage of this marygold plants usually farmers growing crops to control mites with this trap. Marygold plants used are as follows;
  1. At the time of flowering, height almost equal to chrysanthemum plants after the flowers bloom.
  2. The flowers are yellow and large.

Marygold seedlings planted in the midst of bed as much as a raised bed along the lines of chrysanthemum plants. Jarakk marygold plants in rows about three times the distance between chrysanthemum plants and the distance of the two plants are 1 inch meter. 
Marygold mites attack the plant in leaf and flower. In severe attacks, leaves and flowers become very damaged and full of mites which closed threads of vines. And cut flowers are damaged and destroyed by fire. Having exhausted harvested chrysanthemum, a flower that is not attacked marygold can be harvested for sale or be left until the seeds are ripe for the next seed. 
The advantage of this way:
  1. Easy implementation
  2. Besides controlling mites can also control the swelling of roots and nematodes as a pest trap leaf
  3. Cheaper than akarisida control circuitry, so that production costs become cheaper and chrysanthemum flower prices can compete in the marketplace.

In the previous article has described the cultivation of chrysanthemums, in this article only as a supporter of the previous article.
