Consejos de cultivo
Lychee requires a cool, dry winter (below 15 C for several weeks) to initiate flowering; warm winters result in all-vegetative growth.
Post-harvest browning of the pericarp happens within 48 hours; treat with acid dip or sulfur dioxide for commercial markets.
Air layering is the preferred propagation method; seed-grown trees take 10-15 years to fruit and may not be true to type.
