Growing tips

Do not prick out pre-cultivation. Only plant out after the plant has two true leaves. If necessary, mound up a little. Topping after 5-6 leaves helps the development of side shoots. Sensitive to wind, so choose a sheltered spot. Cover with fleece in cold temperatures. A climbing aid can be used. Water regularly.
