Sowing:

Sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost date.
Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix.
Space seeds 1-2 inches apart in trays or individual pots.

Germination:

Maintain a temperature of 75-85°F (24-29°C) for optimal germination.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Germination typically occurs within 10-20 days.

Transplanting:

Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days.
Transplant seedlings to the garden after the danger of frost has passed and nighttime temperatures are consistently above 55°F (13°C).
Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows or garden beds, with rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging.
Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Provide support such as stakes or cages to keep plants upright and prevent branches from breaking under the weight of the fruit.

Happy Gardening!
