The fruits which are more red are clearly sweeter in taste and contain a great deal of vitamins B and C and various minerals. Sow in a greenhouse in a seedbed or directly in 10 cm pots. After emergence, prick out and later transplant to an unheated greenhouse or outside to a warm, sheltered spot. Also suitable for cultivation in pots and boxes.
