1. Temperature: the growth period is not the same as the temperature. For the seeds sown in spring, the suitable temperature for development is between 15 ℃ and 30 ℃; during the growth period, the temperature should be controlled at about 20 ℃, because the growth state is the best at this time.
2. Watering: it is not resistant to drought and waterlogging. If the soil is in a state of drought for a long time, the plant will die in less than three days; if the plant is in the soil with water for a long time, the leaves will droop in a few hours, or die in serious cases. Therefore, we must control the amount of water when we replenish it. Every time we water the soil to be completely wet but there is no accumulated water, we can avoid watering in rainy days. The frequency of watering is once every three days.
3. Fertilization: its growth consumes a lot of fertilizer. If the nutrition fails to keep up with it, the plant will develop weakly. Thin fertilizer shall be used for each fertilization. After fertilization, water shall be used once. The first is to let the fertilizer melt into the soil and facilitate plant absorption; the twentieth is to dilute the fertilizer and avoid fertilizer damage. The frequency of fertilization is once or twice a month.
4. Light: in seedling stage, the demand for light is relatively large, but there is no requirement for light. It is better to accept full day sunshine, but in the fruiting stage, appropriate shade is needed. If the light is too strong and easy, the fruit is easy to rot.
1. Propagation: it can be propagated by sowing. In spring, when the climate is stable, the seeds are required to be sown according to the points, and two or three seeds are placed in each point. After emergence, the seedlings with poor growth will be pulled out.
2. Pruning: there is only one principle to prune it, that is to prune the axillary buds growing under the leaf axils in time to avoid unnecessary consumption of nutrients.
1. Insect damage: the plant is easy to infect the borer. They will start to eat from the inside of the fruit, spread diseases and affect the health of the plant. Spraying carbendazim to plants every half a month can prevent plant infection.
2. Disease: the yellowing of branches and leaves of the plant may be caused by lack of fertilizer. It is necessary to add nutrients to it. Besides applying root fertilizer, you can also use foliar fertilizer for it.
1. Edible: edible.
2. Whether it is suitable for indoor planting: it can be raised indoors, because the requirements for maintenance conditions are not high, and it can be raised indoors.
