Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates

Sunlight and Climate Needs

• Sunlight: Requires full and direct sunlight (at least 6-8 hours a day) for optimal growth and fruit production.
• Air Circulation: Ensure the plant is in a location with good air movement to maintain plant health.

Watering and Soil

• Soil: Plant in well-draining, fertile soil. A slightly loamy soil with a pH of 5.5 to 7.5 is generally ideal.
• Watering: Water deeply and regularly during the initial growing season. Once established, reduce watering frequency, allowing the topsoil to dry completely between waterings. Avoid waterlogging.
• Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer during the main growing seasons to support healthy foliage and fruiting.
