Arabica Coffee Plant
Complete Care Guide
WATERING
Frequency: Keep the soil lightly, evenly moist. Water when the top half-inch dries; a full droop means you've waited a touch too long, and it recovers quickly.
Method: Water thoroughly until water drains from bottom holes. Empty saucer after 30 minutes.
LIGHT
Best Placement: Bright, indirect light, like a spot near an east- or south-facing window with the harshest sun filtered. Too little light and growth gets sparse.
Signs: Pale leaves = too much light. Leggy growth = not enough light.
TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY
Ideal Range: 65-75°F (18-24°C) with 40-60% humidity
Tip: Keep away from heating vents, AC units, and drafty windows.
GROWTH & MAINTENANCE
Repotting: Every 1-2 years in spring, or when roots circle the pot
Fertilizing: Monthly during growing season (spring/summer) with diluted liquid fertilizer.
