Suitable climate for its growth:      

Mesona is a crop requiring long-time sunlight. Insufficient sunlightcould cause harmful growing to Mesona such as thinner leaves, and lower significant components. However Mesona does not always need plentiful sunlight in its growth. It prefers mild climate in the later period of its growth. Normally, Mesona can grow very well in the temperature range between 20 to 25℃.

Mesona likes sandy or detritus soil, which is more convenient to be irrigated. The drainage system for Mesona farming fields has to be well built, so that the water will not stay in the farming fields, and Mesona will not get rotten.
