How to start your garden?

  • Planting Preparation: Place a soil mix pellet in each pot and pour warm water to let the pellet absorb and turn into soil.

  • Sowing Instructions: Press a hole half a fingernail deep into the soil, place seeds in the hole, and cover with soil.

  • Marking Pots: Create plant tags and label the pots. Place the pots in a warm area, away from direct sunlight.

  • Seedling Observation: Observe the seedlings appearing in about 1-14 days.

  • Transplanting Date: When seedlings reach 5-8 cm tall, plant them in a sunny spot in the garden with the pots fully covered by soil.

  • Watering Record: Water the plants regularly to keep the soil adequately moist.

  • Fertilising Record: Apply liquid fertiliser every two weeks.

  • Pruning Record: Pinch off excess side shoots to encourage fruit production.

  • Additional Support: Use canes or a trellis to support the plants as needed.
