How to grow the coffee?

The plant likes plenty of scattered light and the ideal temperature for cultivation is 22-25 degrees. The plant prefers a light, permeable substrate.

Water regularly, but not too much, as the roots are susceptible to rot.

Fertilise during the growing season, do not fertilise in winter and water less. In winter, the ideal temperature for growth is around 15 degrees, but it can also cope with lower temperatures, around 10 degrees.

The plant does not like windy places, nor does it like frost, which would damage it.

The coffee plant can be shaped in spring and summer.

The coffee plant is self-pollinating; you can help it with a cotton bud. The fruits are ready when they turn red.
