Watering: Godetia Double requires regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, but well drained. Avoid waterlogging to prevent fungal diseases.
Pests: Godetia Double is generally resistant to pests, but can occasionally be affected by aphids and thrips. The use of environmentally friendly products, such as potassium soap and Neem oil, is recommended to keep pests under control.
Cold resistance: Godetia Double does not tolerate frost well, so it is recommended to sow it after the risk of frost has passed in spring.
Substrate: A well-drained and slightly fertile substrate is recommended. A soil enriched with compost will help the Double Godetia grow healthy and produce abundant flowers.
Harvest: Godetia Double flowers are ideal for cutting and use in floral arrangements. Cut the flowers when they are fully open to enjoy their full splendor. To prolong flowering, cut off spent flowers regularly.
