Planting:
- Sowing Time: Crotalaria juncea seeds can be planted in spring or early summer, after the last frost date.
- Soil Preparation: Choose well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0 to 7.5. Prepare the soil by tilling and adding compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil fertility.
- Sowing Depth: Plant seeds about 1-2 cm (0.5-1 inch) deep. Space seeds 10-15 cm (4-6 inches) apart to allow for ample growth.
- Spacing: For rows, space them 60-90 cm (24-36 inches) apart to provide adequate space for plant expansion.

Care:
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water regularly during dry periods, especially when the plants are young.
- Fertilization: Crotalaria juncea is a nitrogen-fixing plant, so it requires minimal additional fertilization. However, a balanced fertilizer can be applied if soil nutrients are low.
- Weeding: Regularly remove weeds to reduce competition for nutrients and water.

Temperature and Light:
- Temperature: Crotalaria juncea thrives in warm climates. It prefers temperatures between 20°C to 35°C (68°F to 95°F). It is frost-sensitive, so ensure it is planted after the risk of frost has passed.
- Light: The plant requires full sun to grow optimally. Ensure it receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day for best results.
-
Maintenance:
- Pruning: Minimal pruning is required. However, cutting back the plants after flowering can promote new growth and improve appearance.
- Pests and Diseases: Crotalaria juncea is relatively pest-resistant but keep an eye out for common garden pests. Use organic pest control methods if necessary.
