Start indoors 8–10 weeks before last frost. Sow ¼ inch deep in warm, fertile soil (70–85°F for germination). Transplant outdoors after frost danger has passed, spacing plants 18–24 inches apart in full sun. Water consistently and deeply. Harvest green at 65 days or allow to ripen fully red for peak sweetness.
