Once the average monthly temperature falls below 17 degrees, flowering and fruiting will be affected. The fruit setting rate is highest when the temperature is between 26-28 degrees, and the fruit develops quickly.

2. Moisture: It tolerates drought and humidity, but is afraid of waterlogging. Therefore, attention should be paid to the amount of watering during management, and there should be no stagnant water. Drainage treatment is required during the rainy season. If the humidity is too high, the growth of the plants will be weakened, and the seedlings will be susceptible to blight.
