Requirements for Growing Amla Tree:
Position

Soil
Well-drained, loamy to light heavy soil that is deep and rich in organic matter is required for growing amla trees. A pH level can be between slightly acidic to slightly alkaline. The waterlogged and clay-rich soil is detrimental and must be avoided, same is the case with too sandy soils.
Watering
Regular and abundant watering is essential at a young age. Once the tree gets established, it doesn’t require regular and frequent watering. However, you can water the plant during the period of active growth or in a drought like conditions in summer. Watering 2-3 times in a month in summer is sufficient for a mature tree. In any case, water stagnation must be avoided.
