Growing Guide
Season: Warm, frost-free growing conditions.
Sowing: Sow in a fertile, draining bed with a strong overhead trellis and adequate hanging space.
Soil and feeding: Use a well-drained growing medium with mature compost. Feed according to crop needs, soil fertility and the fertiliser label, rather than a fixed schedule for every vegetable.
Care and Harvest Guide
Water consistently during flowering and fruit enlargement; protect pollinator access and remove badly damaged fruit.
Cut tender fruits before the flesh and seeds mature; shape and length depend on the seed line.
Follow packet depth and spacing for the actual seed line. Keep the seedbed moist, not saturated, and protect young seedlings from heavy rain.
