It is best to use acidic soil that is soft, has good air permeability, and has better drainage ability, because it is very afraid of waterlogging. You can mix leaf humus soil, volcanic rock, and garden soil. You can also add some base fertilizer to the soil, and disinfect it before planting to avoid infestation by pathogens and insect eggs.
