Sowing Instructions

 

Indoors: Sow seeds in trays or pots of quality seed compost from February to April. Cover lightly, water gently, and maintain a temperature of 18–21°C. Prick out seedlings into individual pots when large enough to handle and grow on in bright, warm conditions.

 

Planting Out: After the last frost, harden off and plant outdoors or in a greenhouse in a sunny, sheltered position. Provide canes or string support for the tall cordon habit. Space plants 45–60 cm apart. Regular watering and feeding will ensure heavy crops.

 

Harvesting: Pick fruits as they ripen to encourage continuous production. Sweet, tangy flavour makes them ideal for fresh snacking, salads, or cooking.
