Growing tips
Cover the seeds only lightly with soil for germination, keep evenly moist but not wet and warm (min. 20°C/68°F, more likely 25°C/77°F). A bright location is also important. After germination, place slightly colder. Prick out as soon as 2-4 true leaves are present. Harden off before planting out. When the first fruits start to form, fertilize about 1 time a week. A consistent water supply is also important. The first flower can be broken out to encourage the formation of more fruit. Wind-protected locations are advantageous. Support shoots if necessary.
