Originating from humid regions, siraitia has adapted to absorb and retain moisture efficiently. It's characterized by a preference for consistent humidity levels, maintaining its water balance even in varying conditions. Watering should be done sparingly, about once every three weeks, to mimic the natural watering cycle it would experience in its native habitat. Typically grown indoors due to its humidity requirements, siraitia thrives when soil moisture is closely monitored, especially during its active growth season when water uptake is crucial.
