If you want to grow or breed the dandelion, you should do so in a location that is conducive to this wild plant. But where is that? Where do dandelions feel most at home?

Demands on the location and the substrate
Sunny locations are perfect for the dandelion. There it not only grows faster, but also flowers better. If necessary, it can also stand in partial shade. Only in the shade you should not sow the seeds!
This weed also has low demands on the subsoil, which are usually easy to meet. The dandelion likes to grow wild on moist surfaces and seeks out nitrogen-rich substrates. As a result, a floor with the following characteristics is ideal:
- nutritious
- relaxed
- humid environment
- slightly acidic to slightly alkaline
tips
The dandelion can also settle on fallow land and in high mountains if it does not encounter too many competitors there.
