Cultivation

Suitability of carnations for cutting

Dianthus caryophyllus L.

The suitability of carnations for cutting is determined by their ability to remain fresh for up to 20 days, their sensitivity to ethylene, and the technologies used to form a marketable shoot, including disbudding and specific harvesting stages.

In the reference 159 varieties crop Carnation, where this is mentioned in the description.

For industrial carnation cultivation, key indicators are transportability and vase life. The plant is characterized by high sensitivity to ethylene, which accelerates wilting, requiring controlled post-harvest conditions. The standard harvest phase is the half-open bud stage.

Marketable stem quality is ensured by maintaining temperature regimes and using supports. The cultivation strategy varies depending on the type of crop: for standard carnations, disbudding is applied to obtain a single large flower, whereas for spray types, the terminal bud is removed.
