Water requirements Coffee plant- 15cm

As mentioned before, the Coffee plant is easy to take care of, the Coffee plant is not choosy about its location or watering. It is important that the soil is always slightly moist, in the summer months your coffee plant will need more water than in the winter months. We recommend that you water your coffee plant several times with small amounts of water, as it will be better able to absorb this than a large splash all at once. If your coffee plant develops brown leaf edges, this is often a sign of too much water. Check this by feeling the soil and reduce your watering. Keep a close eye on the soil (especially in the early days). The watering is different for every coffee plant and depends on a number of factors, such as: humidity, location and temperature.

The Coffee Plant likes a light and warm location, but direct sunlight will not do it any favours.
