Cultivation methods and precautions of carambola

1. Soil

Fertile and moist soil is most suitable for the growth of carambola. Generally, red soil with sandy loam as the surface is the best. This kind of soil is of great help to the growth needs of carambola.

2. Lighting

Carambola is a light-loving plant, but it is also shade-tolerant to a certain extent. Adequate sunlight can make it grow and develop better, but it is also necessary to avoid direct sunlight, which will damage its branches and leaves, so it is necessary to provide shade when the sunlight is strong.

3. Water

Adequate water absorption can make the plants grow strong and vigorous, and the fruits will be large and full. When watering, make sure to water thoroughly, but do not allow water to accumulate. Drain the soil when it rains.

4. Temperature

The normal growth temperature of carambola is around 22-26℃, and the temperature should be maintained at around 2-7℃ in winter. Too high or too low temperature will affect the normal development of carambola, so the temperature should be controlled during the breeding period to enable it to grow and develop better.
