Planting: avoid planting Goji berry in heavy (clayey) and wet soil where it grows poorly. Goji thrives best after planting in an airy peat substrate in which it roots quickly while fertilizing with water-soluble NPK fertilizer in each watering. The goji plant responds very well to fertilizing watering, especially in dry and warm weather, similar to peppers and tomatoes as they come from the same family - solanaceae. With this care, the plant will bring the crop already in the same year after the spring planting, there is no need to wait a few years for the first harvest.
