How to Sow and Plant

Prepare fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny location before planting. Sow the seeds directly into the ground after the last frost, once the soil has warmed adequately. Plant the seeds approximately 1 inch deep and cover lightly with soil. Ensure proper spacing between rows and planting hills to allow enough room for vine growth and healthy plant development.

How to Grow

Provide full sun with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for healthy growth and good yields. Water the plants regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Apply mulch around the base of the plants to retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and suppress weeds. Train the vines onto a trellis or allow ample ground space so the plants can spread freely and grow vigorously, ensuring better air circulation and fruit development.

Tips

Start seeds indoors 3–4 weeks before last frost for an earlier harvest.

Use biodegradable pots to minimize root shock when transplanting.

Apply balanced organic fertilizer at planting and mid-season.
