WHEN TO SOW
April - May

WHERE TO SOW
Sow four or five seeds in a 9cm (4") pot under glass at a minimum of 25°C. Temperature must be maintained at night

WHAT TO DO NEXT
As soon as seedlings have produced three true leaves, prick off into individual pots. Above four weeks later, plant out in the growing site 45cm (18") apart when all fears of frost have past. When watering, always use tap water at room temperature to avoid any bacterial infection.  Water thoroughly and regularly.

MATURITY
June-July onwards

HANDY TIP
One of the traditional ways to ensure germination is to fold a damp sheet of kitchen paper in half, and place the seeds on their edge in the fold.  Then place ina plastic bag and put them in the airing cupboard.  Check daily and once germinated, place in compost and grow on as normal.  Pick fruit on the small side, 10-12cm (4-5"). High yields can be obtained by regular picking.
