nachos and chopped in Mexican sauces -- both sweet and hot, with an

Just 3 1/2 inches long and about 1 1/2 inches wide,
these rounded, thick-walled fruits are borne in great numbers on very

Start seeds indoors or, in climate with short
growing seasons, outdoors at least one week after last frost. If
starting indoors, allow 7 to 10 weeks for the seeds to mature into
seedlings large enough to transplant safely. Fertilize when the blooms
appear, and water well. Fruit is most nutritious if allowed to ripen on
the plant.
