Watering:

Water when the soil is visually dry; don’t over water. Thoroughly saturate the soil when watering. Keep in a clay pot, which will help with increasing air exchange in the root zone.

Go easy on the fertilizer. Apply monthly or bi-monthly. Fertilize with ½ tsp/gallon of a balanced fertilizer (ie: 5-10-3, 7-9-5, 10-10-10).

Prune plants after fruit harvest or whenever growth is exces­sive

Grow them in clay pots as indoor plants. This keeps the root system healthy.
