Sowing
Pre-sow the Pepino seeds from February to April at a temperature between 20-25°C and then plant out in May at a planting distance of 60x100cm, or in pots. The frost-sensitive Pepino thrives in a place protected from rain. It needs humus-rich, nutrient-rich soil and is treated like a tomato plant during cultivation.
Harvest
The Pepinos are harvestable during the period from August to September.
