Gardening
Green Amaranthus, also known as Amaranthus viridis or slender amaranth, is a leafy vegetable that belongs to the Amaranth family. It's commonly grown in tropical and subtropical regions.
Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as minerals like iron, calcium, and magnesium. It also provides fiber and antioxidants, making it a healthy choice.
Due to its high nutritional content, Green Amaranthus supports bone health, improves digestion, and boosts immunity. It may also help in managing anemia and promoting healthy skin.
Amaranthus is a good source of plant-based protein, making it a great addition to vegetarian and vegan diets.
Climate :
Amaranthus thrives in warm climates and is a fast-growing plant. It's suitable for tropical and subtropical regions but can be grown in temperate climates during the warmer months.
Soil :
It grows best in well-drained, fertile soil that is rich in organic matter. A soil pH between 6.5 to 7.5 is ideal, but it can tolerate a wide range of soil types, including sandy or loamy soils.
Sunlight :
Full sunlight is preferred, although it can tolerate partial shade. At least 4-6 hours of sunlight a day ensures optimal growth.
Watering :
While Amaranthus is drought-tolerant once established, it grows best with regular watering. Keep the soil moist, especially during the early stages of growth, but avoid waterlogging, as this can cause root rot.
Planting :
You can either plant seeds directly in the soil or start them indoors and transplant seedlings when they’re about 2-3 inches tall. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, spaced about 10-12 inches apart to allow room for growth.
Harvesting :
Leaves can be harvested as early as 4-6 weeks after planting. Cut the young leaves as needed for cooking but avoid removing too many at once so the plant continues to grow.
No of seeds per pkt : 100
Germination Rate: 70%
