Growing Zones & Care Guide
USDA Hardiness Zones: Zones 310. The Goji Berry is one of the most cold-hardy fruiting plants available it thrives across an enormous range of climates, from the frigid northern US to warm southern gardens.
Sunlight: Full sun preferred 68 hours daily for best fruit production. Tolerates partial shade but yields fewer berries.
Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, Goji is highly drought-tolerant water deeply but infrequently. Avoid waterlogged soil.
Soil: Adaptable to a wide range of soils, including sandy, loamy, and even slightly alkaline conditions (pH 6.58.0). Excellent drainage is essential.
Fertilizing: Light feeding with a balanced fertilizer in early spring. Avoid over-fertilizing with nitrogen, which promotes foliage over fruit.
Pruning: Prune in late winter to remove old canes and encourage vigorous new growth. Goji produces fruit on new wood, so annual pruning is key to heavy yields.
Harvest Window: Mid-summer through fall (JulyOctober). Berries are ripe when they turn deep red and release easily from the stem with a gentle shake avoid squeezing, as ripe berries bruise easily.
