Growing tips

For a better yield break out king bud. Cover seeds only lightly with soil for germination, keep evenly moist but not wet and warm (min. 20°C, more likely 25°C). A bright location is also important. 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. Wind-protected locations are advantageous. Support shoots if necessary.
