Growing
Tongkat Ali thrives in tropical climates with temperatures between 24°C to 32°C (75°F to 90°F) and requires ample sunlight. It prefers well-draining sandy or loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.0 to 7.0) and consistent moisture, though it cannot withstand waterlogging. Found at altitudes up to 300 meters (1000 feet), it benefits from regular rainfall but can endure short drought periods. Propagated from seeds directly sown into the soil, Tongkat Ali plants require adequate spacing for proper root development, along with regular maintenance like weeding and pest control. Harvesting the roots typically occurs after 4-5 years to maximize potency.
