Choose a location that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily and prepare the planting site by amending the soil with compost and ensuring good drainage.

Dig holes slightly larger than the plant's root ball, spacing them about 12-18 inches apart.

Gently remove each plant from its container, loosen any circling roots, and place it in the prepared hole.

Backfill with soil, lightly firming around the base of the plant to remove air pockets, then water thoroughly until the soil is moist to a depth of 6 inches.

Water regularly, especially during dry spells, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Apply a layer of mulch around the plants to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.

Fertilize every 4-6 weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer or as directed by your chosen slow-release granular fertilizer.

Monitor for pests and diseases, addressing any issues promptly with appropriate organic or chemical controls.

Prune any dead or damaged leaves and runners to promote new growth and fruit production.
