These areas are suitable for plants that do not require full sun but still need light, with exposures to the northeast or northwest, offering a balance between light and shade throughout the day. The exposure indicates how many hours of direct sunlight the plant needs for optimal growth. It can be full sun, partial shade, or shade, depending on the amount of natural light the plant needs to develop well and produce fruit. This information helps position the plants to promote their growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest time: 50-65 days\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe harvest time indicates how many days it takes for the fruit to be harvestable (note: ripening may occur in different times than indicated, influenced by climatic factors, irrigation, and soil fertility).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTransplant distance: 40x100\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe transplant distance is the space between plants at the time of planting, both in the row and between rows.

This value may vary depending on factors such as the harvest phase, fertilization practices, and climatic conditions. In the early harvests, the weight may be lower than the indicated values. Additionally, conditions such as drought, water shortage, temperature fluctuations, poor or excessive nitrogen fertilization affect fruit growth, which may be higher or lower than expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGrowing tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe plant is very healthy and vigorous and loves \u003cstrong\u003ehigh temperatures\u003c\/strong\u003e, with transplants recommended from \u003cstrong\u003eMay onwards\u003c\/strong\u003e.
