Sow indoors
Level fill a module seed tray firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds individually and cover with 1cm (½ in) layer of fine compost. Place in a propagator at 18-25°C (65-75°F) or cover tray with cling film and leave in a warm room. Keep moist.
Grow on
When shoots appear, remove cling film. Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When plants have 4-6 leaves transplant to 9cm (3½ in) pots of potting compost. Grow on in a minimum temperature of 15?C (60°F). Pinch the growing tip to encourage bushy growth.
Plant out
Plant out into 25cm (10in) containers once roots are beginning to come through the bottom of the 9cm pot. Keep indoors in a greenhouse, on a light windowsill or sunny sheltered patio spot. Stems may require some support.
Tips
Water regularly and feed weekly with a liquid fertiliser as fruit start to swell. Take care to wash hands after handling or preparing fruits and avoid touching your eyes.
