Gardener’s Notes: Start seeds indoors in a container of seed starting mix 6 weeks before day and night temps are evenly in the 50F (10C) range. Keep moist but not soggy and very warm (75-80F/24-27C). When seedlings are 2 inches tall, transplant into larger individual containers. Plant outdoors in rich soil in full sun only when night temperatures stay above 55F (13C). Provide tall cages or stakes at planting time. Water regularly. Pick when fruits are fully red ripe.Â
