What is the suitable temperature for passion fruit planting?

Temperature requirements for passion fruit cultivation

Passion fruit seeds are best germinated at a temperature of 25°C , so generally speaking, they should be planted at a temperature that is stable at 25°C . At this temperature, the seeds germinate quickly and have a high germination rate, and are more suitable for management after germination.

Suitable temperature for passion fruit growth

Passion fruit needs a warm and humid environment to grow. The most suitable growth temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius . Too high or too low temperature will cause passion fruit to grow slowly.

When the temperature is below 15℃, passion fruit will stop growing. At the same time, passion fruit needs sufficient sunlight to grow. If the temperature is suitable but it is in a dark environment for a long time, the leaves of passion fruit will slowly turn yellow, affecting the growth of the entire plant. Therefore, suitable lighting conditions need to be provided during the growth period of passion fruit to ensure the growth and development of passion fruit.

Passion fruit planting time

Passion fruit is a tropical and subtropical fruit that grows mostly in a warm and humid environment. The cold winter in the northern region is not conducive to the survival of passion fruit, so it is generally planted in the spring of March to April in the warm southern region. Generally, the specific time should be chosen on a cloudy day or a sunny day after rain, when the temperature is relatively stable, and there will be no drought or waterlogging, which is conducive to the later growth and development.
