- Sunlight: Eviarc jackfruit plants thrive in full sun. Ensure they get at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and fruit production.
- Soil: These plants prefer well-drained, fertile, and slightly acidic soil. A pH level between 6.0 and 6.5 is ideal. Amend the soil with organic compost to improve nutrient content.
- Watering: Water regularly but avoid over-watering. The soil should be kept moist but not soggy. Water deeply to ensure the roots get enough hydration, especially during the dry season.
- Temperature: Jackfruit plants love warmth. Maintain a temperature range of 25°C to 35°C. Avoid exposing them to temperatures below 15°C.
- Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer, high in potassium, to promote healthy fruiting. Apply a slow-release fertilizer during the growing season, but avoid over-fertilizing as it can damage the plant.
- Pruning: Regularly prune dead or damaged branches to encourage healthy growth and maintain the plant's shape. Removing excess growth also helps in better fruit production.
- Support: As the tree grows larger, provide support for the branches to hold the heavy fruit. Some varieties, like Eviarc, can grow quite large, so staking or supporting the tree might be necessary as it matures.
- Pest Control: Check for pests like aphids, caterpillars, and mites. If found, use natural insecticides or manually remove pests from the plant.
By providing the right care, your Eviarc jackfruit plant will grow healthy and yield delicious fruit for years to come!
