      Hello Oscar.
      It is a plant sensitive to cold, needing protection if the temperature drops below 12ºC.
      In the article you have more information.
      Greetings.

      Hello isbael.

      When it has reached its maximum size, and if when you touch it you notice that it is a little soft, then you can take it 🙂

      A greeting.
