How to Sow and Plant

Start seeds indoors about 6–8 weeks before the last expected frost.

Plant seeds approximately ¼ inch deep in seed-starting trays or pots filled with quality seed-starting mix.

Keep the soil warm and consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 7–10 days.

Once seedlings have developed true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors into prepared garden beds or containers.

How to Grow

Provide at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Water plants regularly, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged.

Support indeterminate plants with stakes, cages, or trellises to help keep the plant upright.

Fertilize moderately with a balanced fertilizer during the growing season.

Tips

Avoid over-watering to prevent root diseases and soggy soil conditions.

Prune excess suckers to focus the plant’s energy on fruit production and improve airflow.

Apply mulch around the plant’s base to retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
