🌿 Growing Guide
Soil
Plant in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with compost or well-rotted organic manure. A soil pH of 6.0–7.0 ensures vigorous growth and excellent fruit production.
Sunlight
Provide 6–8 hours of direct sunlight every day. In protected cultivation, ensure good ventilation and light penetration.
Watering
Maintain evenly moist soil throughout the growing season. Avoid waterlogging and irregular watering to reduce fruit cracking.
Plant Support
As a vigorous variety producing long fruit trusses, provide stakes, trellises, or cages. Training plants to multiple stems improves air circulation, increases flowering, and maximizes yield.
