Grow under glass for the earliest crops.

Sow seeds mid March to mid April under glass for indoor cropping. Sow early April to May under glass to transplant outdoors. Sow seeds 1cm (½in) deep in pots or trays of good seed compost at minimum 20C (68F) under glass or in a propagator. Protect emerging seedlings from direct sunlight to avoid scorching. Alternatively, only in the warmest areas, sow direct outdoors, 1-2cm (½ to ¾in) deep from mid May.


Pot on individual seedlings into 7.5cm (3in) pots of compost and keep barely moist to avoid stem rot. Maintain a temperature of around 2C (68F) Plant 2 plants per growbag under frost free glass for earliest crops, or in frames or cloches. Plants can be supported on strings/wires or grown on the flat. Pinch out growing point after 4 true leaves. Laterals will form. Train 4 laterals to 6 leaf stage and then pinch out. Sub laterals will form which produce fruit. Pollinate 4-5 female flowers (with a bump under the flower) on each plant with a male flower. Once fruit has set remove further flowers. Feed regularly with potash or tomato fertiliser.

Prefers humus-rich, moist, well drained soil. Protect from frost to extend the season.
