What you need to know to Plant & Grow

Start seeds indoors about 10 weeks before your typical last frost date. For best germination, soak seeds in water overnight before planting and maintain a soil temperature of 27°C. Once the seeds have sprouted, grow them on under lights at a slightly cooler temperature of 23°C.

Planting: Harden off the seedlings gradually before transplanting them outside after all danger of frost has passed. Choose a full sun location with a fertile, highly organic soil. Plant transplants 60 cm apart in rows that are 90 cm apart. Keep the plants evenly watered throughout the season and feed them regularly with a low nitrogen fertilizer.

Harvesting: About 3 to 4 weeks before your typical first fall frost date, pinch off any blossoms that develop. This will encourage the plant to put its energy towards maturing the fruit it is already carrying. Mature fruit is dark and shiny, and the surface will not spring back when it is depressed and released. Germination takes 10-20 days.
