lighting conditions

Sun

The purple eggplant (Physalis ixocarpa) prefers a bright and sunny location in order to grow optimally and produce fruit. It is also important to protect the location from wind and draughts, as the plant can react sensitively to these conditions.
If you do not have a Boum system, it may be necessary to water the plant daily during the summer months. Fertilising is also important, especially during the growth and fruiting phase. It is best to use the Boum fertiliser, which decomposes slowly over time and releases its nutrients into the soil.

You can find more plant information in the Boum app.

Water & Earth

Fresh

With the Boum system, the purple eggplant (Physalis ixocarpa) automatically receives the optimum amount of water without water logging or the plant drying out.
If you do not have a Boum system, you should water the plant regularly so that it has evenly moist soil without water logging.
