Signs of Cold Stress in Soursop
Symptoms
Soursop exhibits moderate resilience to cool temperatures and flourishes optimally when temperatures range from 75℉ to 85℉. In colder months, it should be maintained above 68℉. Should the temperature drop below 50℉, foliage may darken. In extreme instances, water-soaked tissue death, wilting, and sagging might occur, with leaves progressively turning brown.
Solutions
Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting or construct a temporary greenhouse for protection from cold. When bringing the plant inside, select a spot near a south-facing window to ensure sufficient light. If natural light is inadequate, artificial lighting can be used.
Signs of Heat Stress in Soursop
Symptoms
In summer, Soursop should be kept below 85℉. When temperatures surpass 91℉, the plant's development decelerates, its leaves lighten in hue, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Prune off any sun-scorched and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering shade from the afternoon sun. Irrigate the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
