FRUITING TIME: Grafted saplings start producing fruit in 1.5 to 3 years, much faster than seed-grown trees.
GROWING REQUIREMENTS
SUNLIGHT: Requires full, direct sunlight for at least 6 to 8 hours daily.
SOIL: Prefers well-draining, fertile, loamy to slightly acidic soils (pH 5.5 to 7.0) rich in organic matter. Avoid waterlogged sites.
