Growing conditions: Requires good support and tying. Suitable for greenhouses and open ground.
Growing from seeds: Before planting, the seeds must be treated: soak them in water at 50ºC (122ºF) for 5-6 hours to swell. Then, wrap them in a damp cloth and leave them for 2-3 days at a temperature of approximately 20ºC (68ºF) until the seeds sprout. Only then should they be placed in the soil. Water the seeds thoroughly, then cover the seedling containers with plastic or glass and place them in a warm place. As soon as the first sprouts appear, increase the room temperature to 26-28ºC (79-82ºF) during the day, and keep the seedlings cool at night – 10-15ºC (50-59ºF).
Monitor the soil moisture in the seedling containers – it should be moderate. Water the seedlings with settled, warm water. When the first pair of leaves appears, transplant them. Fertilizing the soil is necessary: two weeks after transplanting, or when the seedlings develop their first pair of leaves, and then two weeks later, or when the seedlings develop their second pair of leaves.
Shortly before planting the seedlings outdoors, acclimate them to the environment they will be exposed to: the seedlings are taken outdoors daily for short periods, gradually increasing the time, and avoiding temperatures below 13ºC. Once the seedlings have grown, strengthened, and hardened off, and are beginning to form their first buds, they are planted outdoors when the air temperature reaches 15-17ºC.
