Soil & Water: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil with ample calcium and phosphorus. Moderate water needs.

Planting & Growing: Start indoors 8 weeks before last frost. Direct seeding not recommended. Stake to keep fruit off the ground. It is ok to have the top leaves touching slightly which will help shade the fruit and roots when the summer temperatures rise. Mulch the plants to keep soil cooler than the air temperature and reduce evaporation.

Harvesting & Storage: Harvest first fruits early to encourage continued production. Cut (don’t pull) fruit from stems. Can harvest green but fruits become sweeter as they ripen red.
