‍

🌱 Getting Started

Mediterranean crops thrive in warm, sunny conditions with well-drained soil.

Plant warm-season crops like eggplant, tomatoes, peppers, and melons after your last frost.

Cool-season crops like arugula, cabbage, and cauliflower go in during spring or fall for the best results.

‍

☀️ Sun Requirements

Mediterranean crops love sun. Most varieties in this bundle perform best with 6–8 hours of direct sunlight per day.

Arugula and parsley are the most flexible and can handle a bit of afternoon shade.

‍

💧 Watering

Water deeply but allow soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Mediterranean plants naturally prefer conditions that aren't overly wet.

Mulch around plants to retain moisture and keep roots cool during peak summer heat.

‍

✂️ Harvesting

Harvest eggplant when the skin is glossy and firm.

Pick cucumbers and zucchini while still small for the best texture.

Tomatoes, watermelon, and melon are ready when fully colored and fragrant.

Fresh herbs should be harvested regularly to keep plants productive.

‍

🧺 Storing Your Harvest

Eggplant, tomatoes, peppers, and watermelon store best at room temperature. Cucumbers keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. Fresh herbs store wrapped in damp paper towel in the fridge, or stem-down in water on the counter.
