Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates
Sunlight and Climate Needs
Citrus plants are sun-loving and thrive in warm, humid conditions prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions of India.
- Sunlight: Requires full, direct sunlight for a minimum of 6 hours per day to ensure vigorous growth and heavy fruit production.
- Air Circulation: Ensure the plants are in a location with good air movement to help keep foliage healthy.
Watering and Soil
Proper soil and consistent moisture are essential for the health and yield of these citrus varieties.
- Soil: Plant in a well-draining, fertile soil mix. Citrus plants prefer a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5 to 7.0).
- Watering: Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry spells and peak growing periods. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer specifically formulated for citrus plants during the main growing seasons (typically spring and monsoon) to support flowering and fruiting.
The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plants are protected and well-ventilated during transit, guaranteeing you receive a healthy pack of four genuine variety plants.
