Growing tips

In April into the manure bed in half-filled pots, which are later filled with soil or from May directly into the open field (note the risk of late frost!), germination temperature optimal at 15-20 degrees soil temperature, harvest from August to September before frost, storage at least 15 degrees, requires good fertilization and wide spacing. Water regularly.
