How to breed peach eggs

illumination

It needs full-day sunlight. Except for a short period of dormancy in summer, the peach egg is basically in its growth period. Therefore, sufficient light can ensure a beautiful state.

temperature

The suitable temperature is 10-20 degrees. The large temperature difference in autumn and winter makes it easier to color. It is recommended to provide shade when the temperature exceeds 30 degrees. Please move indoors for the winter when the temperature is below 5 degrees, otherwise it is easy to get frostbite.

Watering

Watering is very important for growing peach egg plants well. I personally recommend strictly controlling the amount of water. It is just right to water when you see the leaves slightly wrinkled.

Fertilization

It is recommended to spray multi-effect fertilizer several times in spring and autumn to effectively prevent excessive growth, and bury the slow-release fertilizer at the bottom of the pot.

Pests and diseases

Peach egg plants usually do not have many insect pests, but to be on the safe side, if conditions permit, you can sprinkle some Furadan on the soil surface every summer and winter.

Reproduction

Beheading, sowing, and leaf cuttings are all possible. The germination rate of leaf cuttings is a bit low, and the germination time is very long, so you need a bit of patience.
