| Light | Full sun, 6+ h direct; indoors ~25,000 lux for 12-16 h/day, with timers following local sunrise and sunset |
| Water | Mineral-free only (rain, distilled, RO; TDS under ~100 ppm, ideally much lower); tray method: stand in 2-3 cm (about 1 in) of water in summer; damp rather than wet in winter. |
