Sow seeds indoors (do not direct sow into the garden), using sterile seed starting mix, 6 to 8 weeks before your last expected frost date. Plant 1/4" deep, water lightly but keep moist until emergence.
Full light and cooler temps (60° to 70°) will help to prevent the seedlings from becoming too leggy. If plants become rootbound before you can safely set them into the ground, transplant them into larger pots.
Harden off plants before planting outside. Young plants are very susceptible to frost and sunburn damage. Avoid too much nitrogen. Water evenly but not in excess.

Was surprised at the size: This one weighed 26 ounces. Was also surprised it was ready this early in the season: Picked this morning, 20 May 2024. Lots of green fruit, most of it smaller, still on the vine. The plant is robust, healthy and about 5 feet tall. Growing in a 20-gallon grow bag, trellised overhead. NE Texas, 8a. First time growing this variety.
