The Ganesha Vine can be grown in a 12-inch pot or directly in the ground. Ensure the container has proper drainage to avoid waterlogging. It thrives in full sun, needing at least 6 hours of sunlight daily for healthy growth and vibrant blooms.
Regular watering is essential during the growing season to keep the soil moist. Reduce watering in winter to prevent root rot.
Fertilise with organic options during the growing season. Apply slow-release fertiliser every two months or water-soluble fertiliser monthly. Bone meal, Epsom salt, Jeevamrutham, and vermicompost are excellent choices to enhance flowering and plant growth.
Keep an eye out for pests like aphids, spider mites, and whiteflies. Use neem oil, Verticillium lecanii, or Beauveria bassiana for pest control. Regular monitoring helps prevent severe infestations.
Watch for fungal or bacterial issues causing leaf spots or discoloration. Yellowing leaves may indicate nutrient deficiencies, so test the soil and adjust care as needed. With proper attention, the Ganesha Vine will grow beautifully and bloom abundantly.
