| Watering needs | Water this plant deeply and regularly. Keep it moist and allow it to dry out a little between watering as it does not like wet feet. Avoid watering its fruit. |
| Pruning Advice | Harvest when fruit has reached the desired colour and the rind is hard. Ripeness is also indicated by a hollow sound when you knock on the fruit. Prune when vine reaches 4 to 5 metres to encourage energy into fruit production. |
