Signs of Cold Stress in Caigua

Symptoms

Caigua tolerates cool conditions moderately well, flourishing optimally between 68℉ and 77℉. In colder months, maintain temperatures above 60℉. Below 50℉, foliage may darken. Severe cases can lead to water-soaked decay, wilting, drooping, and leaves turning brown.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm spot or construct a temporary greenhouse for protection. Indoors, position it near a south-facing window for adequate light. Supplement with artificial lighting if natural light is insufficient.

Signs of Heat Stress in Caigua

Symptoms

In summer, Caigua should be maintained below 77℉. Temperatures above 86℉ hinder growth, lighten leaf color, and increase susceptibility to sun damage.

Solutions

Prune off any sun-scorched or desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering afternoon shade. Water the plant during morning and evening hours to maintain soil moisture.
