Delicious, porcelain white fruits Practical, mid-sized slender fruit that can be up to 18cm long. Disease resistant compact plants, ideal for containers providing a good source of dietary fibres Sow indoors, a warm kitchen windowsill is all you need for starting these seeds. Sow 0.5cm (1/4″) deep, thinly in a tray or pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 20-25oC (68-77oF) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Transplant to individual pots when large enough to handle. Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. Plant out to large pots, growing bags or greenhouse border. Provide support with canes if necessary. Plants may be grown outside in a warm, sunny sheltered location. However, outdoor crops will be later and smaller. Gently spray flowers with tepid water to encourage fruit to set. Feed regularly once fruits have set.
