Transplant outdoors after all danger of frost has passed and nighttime temperatures remain above 50°F (10°C). Space plants 2436 inches apart in fertile, well-drained soil.
Sunlight:
Provide full sun, with at least 68 hours of direct sunlight daily for best growth and fruit production.
Watering:
Water deeply and regularly, keeping soil evenly moist but not saturated. Water at the base to help prevent disease.
