Sowing Sow in mid April to early May 1–2 cm deep in individual pots and keep at 22–25 °C; seedlings emerge in 3–7 days. Direct sowing outdoors is possible in early June.

Planting out Plant 3–4-week-old seedlings into a greenhouse in late May or outdoors in early June once frosts have passed; space plants 30–40 cm apart in rows 60–70 cm apart.

Care Water regularly and evenly with warm water, keeping the leaves dry. Tie the plants to a support, feed with a liquid fertiliser every two weeks and keep the soil loose and mulched.

Harvest Pick the fruits regularly, every 1–2 days, while they are young and green; frequent picking keeps the plants fruiting until autumn.
