Keep as warm as possible during germination. Using mulch film or compost can help keep heat and moisture in the soil and keep weeds out. Plant protected from wind. Plant only after the 4th leaf of foliage has formed. Fertilize, water and harvest regularly. Do not water with water that is too cold. A climbing aid is recommended for better shaped fruit.
