A pot or cup with a capacity of 0.2 liters is suitable for growing. There should be drainage holes at the bottom. River sand or turf soil with compost are suitable for growing.

After planting, cover the soil with a plastic lid and wait for the shoots to emerge. Keep the plant in a well-lit place at a temperature of 18-22 degrees.
