Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and keep consistently moist at 70–85°F. Provide bright light after germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed. Space plants 24–36 inches apart in full sun. Provide sturdy support such as cages or stakes for the indeterminate vines.

Water regularly to maintain even soil moisture, and mulch to conserve moisture and prevent weeds. Fertilize lightly at planting and again when fruits begin to set. Prune suckers as needed to improve airflow. Harvest fruits when fully colored and slightly soft to the touch.
