Germination temperature 20-25 ° C. With appropriate outdoor temperatures, it can then be sown directly outdoors. Plants grown indoors should be planted after the last frosts. Cross-pollinate (at least 2 plants required). Young harvesting promotes the formation of new fruits. Large fruits are firmer, less tender/aromatic and can be stored longer.
