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 moist at 70-80°F. Germination typically occurs in 7-14 days. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into larger pots and gradually acclimate to outdoor conditions. Plant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing 24-36 inches apart. Provide support with stakes or cages as plants grow.
Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with a balanced fertilizer. Prune suckers if desired to encourage larger fruit, though not required. Harvest fruits when they are fully red and slightly soft to the touch.
