Gardener's Notes: Grows best in warm weather. Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last spring frost. Grow in sunny window or under plant lights. Before planting in garden, acclimate seedlings to outdoor conditions over several days. Transplant into fertile, well-drained soil when temperatures stay above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Harvest when fruits are about 2 inches in diameter and skin is shiny. Cut with knife leaving stem attached.
