• Spacing: Plant 6-8 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth.

Maintenance Tips

Proper care ensures that Cyclamen 'Miracle' Mix remains healthy and vibrant. Follow these maintenance tips for the best results:

• Watering: Water the plants regularly during the growing season, ensuring the soil stays evenly moist. Reduce watering in the summer when the plant goes dormant. Avoid getting water on the leaves and flowers to prevent fungal diseases.
• Fertilizing: Feed Cyclamen with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Dilute the fertilizer to half strength to avoid over-fertilization, which can harm the plant.
• Pruning: Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves regularly to keep the plant tidy and to encourage new growth. Pinch off the stems close to the base to avoid damaging the tuber.
• Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the plant to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Use organic mulch like leaf mold or compost.
• Pest and Disease Control: Watch for pests such as aphids, spider mites, and cyclamen mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil. Ensure good air circulation around the plants to prevent fungal diseases like botrytis.
