Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Jalapeno raam is thought of as half hardy, so although it can survive a small mild cold snap, it is wise to ensure that this plant is protected from frost damage. Ideally plant in loamy and sandy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 7.0 and 8.5 as Jalapeno raam likes to be in neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil.
