Ukusivuna

Ukuvunwa kwe-Oregano kwenziwa ngezandla nanyana ngemitjhini okuya ngokobana isimu yawo ingangani. Lapha ingasiyikulu isimu nakuma-greenhouse ivunwa ngesandla.

Umkhiqizo ofretjhi: Thoma ukuvuna ekuseni lokha nakusapholileko. Ukuvuna kwempente ezifretjhi kungathoma msinya ngemva kwemveke ezibunane ngemva kokobana utjale amaplantjisi.

Umkhiqizo owomileko: Lokha nakukhiqizwa i-oregano eyonyisiweko, ukuyisika kungathoma msinya ngebanga lokobana kunamakari aneleko kobana angavunwa. Ezikhulako ziyatrinywa ngephambi kokobana zithuthumbe amathuthumbo apheleleko lokha amafutha amanengi.

Ukusikwa kwayo yonziswe ku-30°C kusetjenziswa i-drier ekhipha umoya nanyana ngokulengisa konyiswe amakhambi amalanga ayi-21 endaweni engena kuhle umoya kude nelanga. Ungasebenzisi isifuthumezi somoya esinamazinga womtjhiso ayi-30°C ngebanga lokobana izokwenza bona amafutha aphume emakhambini ngebanga lokobana zoke iinambitheko ezikiwo zizokonakala.

Amafutha aqakathekileko akhiqizwako: Amafutha amahle aqakathekileko abuya lokha nakuvunwa amakari we-aregano ngaphambi kokobana akhiphe amathuthumbo lokha amafutha asesitjalweni amanengi. Isivuno sesibili sesikhathi sonyaka sikhipha iinthako ezinengi kanye namafutha.

Ukubekwa

Umkhiqizo ofretjhi: Ngemva kokuyivuna, yibeke emazingeni womtjhiso ahlangana kwe-1 ukuya ku- 2°C. I-oregano ingabekwa iimveke ezimbili. Yibeke endaweni eyi-95% ukukhandela kobana iphele amanzi. Amakhambi amatjha aloba umnambitheko wawo msinya kuhle begodu ukurhweba ngayo usebenzise i-oregano efretjhi msinya ngendlela ongarhona ngayo.

Umkhiqizo oqomileko: Amakari anyosiweko apakwa emumathini ezingangenwa mumoya msinya ngendlela ekurhonakala ngayo ukwenzela bona kungonakali umbala kanye nomnambitheko. Wabeke ku-10°C. I-oregano oyonyisiweko ingasetjenziswa iyirhwabalaza amabhegeni avaliweko.

Amafutha aqakathekileko: Beka amafutha aqakathekileko endaweni enzima, epholileko iinyanga ezinyi-18 ngemva kokobana uwafake ebhodleleni. Ngemva kwalokho, amafutha athoma ukonakala nomnuko uyaphela.

Iinunwana

Mealy bugs, snout beetles, spider mites, thrips, leaf rollers, kanye ne-miners.

Amalwelwe

Alternaria, powdery mildew, root rots kanye ne-rust  miraro ejwayelekileko.

Amakhambi anambithekako we-aregano anenunwana ezimbalwa kanye namalwelwe ambalwa, kodwana kungcono ukulandela iindlela zokuvikela iintjalo oyinikezwe yi-extension officer nanyana i-agronomist yangekhenu. Abantu abathengisa amakhemikhali bangekhenu banamaprogremu alungileko angakunikeza ilwazi lokobana amakhemikhali amahle athengiswako ngimaphi aseduze kwalapha ukhiqizela khona.
