Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.

How to fertilize Dwarf clusia
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Dwarf clusia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I bought the plant two weeks ago and watered it with 1.5 liters of water along with amino acids on the first day. Twelve days later, I watered it again with half a liter, and the leaves turned very yellow and began to fall off. #Clusia

Easiest plant i have ever taken care of (or rather not taken care of). You literally can’t kill this plant. I’ve neglected it multiple times, over/underwatered it, experienced rootrot, given it minimal sun as well as full sun. Still puts out beautiful new leaves constantly. Very hardy plant. Easy to propagate too.
Def a recommendation from me!
