Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, 0.5-1 cm deep in moist potting soil. Maintain a temperature of 24-28°C for rapid germination in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings outdoors or into containers when temperatures are stable, spacing them 40-50 cm apart, in well-drained soil and full sun.

Water regularly to keep the soil slightly moist. Harvest the fruits when they reach full color to enjoy their flavor and potency.
