Onderhoudsinstructies
To care for Syzygium aqueum, provide it with bright, direct sunlight for several hours a day. Maintain a warm and humid environment, as the plant prefers tropical conditions. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil consistently wet, but ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogging. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer to support growth.
Oogst
Syzygium aqueum, commonly known as the water apple, is typically harvested when the fruits are fully mature and have developed their characteristic color, which can range from pale green to pink or red. The fruits should be firm to the touch and can be easily plucked from the tree by hand or with the help of pruning shears to avoid damaging the branches. It is important to harvest the fruits during the cooler parts of the day, such as early morning or late afternoon, to maintain their freshness. Post-harvest, the fruits should be handled gently to prevent bruising and stored in a cool, dry place to extend their shelf life.

Toxiciteit
Syzygium aqueum is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. The fruits are edible and commonly consumed. However, always exercise caution and consult a professional if unsure about the plant's safety.
