How To Grow
Sow seeds 5 mm deep in trays, pots, or directly into well-prepared garden soil. Keep the soil evenly moist and warm until germination, which may take 7–21 days. Once seedlings reach 7–10 cm tall, transplant them into their final position, spacing plants about 40 cm apart. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot with free-draining soil or quality potting mix.
When To Plant
Spring through Summer. In frost-free northern regions, sowing can also continue in Winter.
Harvest
12–14 weeks after sowing. Pick regularly to encourage more fruiting.
Sow
Spring, Summer.
Soil Type
Fertile, well-drained soil or premium potting mix.
Care
Avoid letting the plants dry out, but do not overwater. Feed occasionally with liquid fertiliser to support vigorous growth and fruiting. Handle fruits with care as they are extremely hot and may irritate skin and eyes.
