How to Sow and Plant

Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Sow ¼ inch deep in moist, well-drained soil. Maintain temperatures of 70–80°F until germination (7–14 days). Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost, spacing 24–36 inches apart. Use stakes or cages for support.

How to Grow

Plant in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. Water consistently to maintain even moisture. Fertilize with balanced organic fertilizer. Prune regularly to improve airflow and fruit production.

Tips

Harvest fruits when fully purple with red blush on underside for best flavor.

Monitor for aphids, whiteflies, or other pests and use organic control methods.

Succession planting ensures continuous harvest.
