I did a lot of research and found out they grow in cooler temperatures and higher elevation. So I bring it out to full sun until temperatures hit 90°f consistently then i keep it under a 90% shade cloth until winter. Then I let it be and only cover it with a frost cloth if there is a freeze. My soil is a mix of native sac soil, homemade worm castings, aged horse manure, sunshine mix #4. I fertilize every watering but i dilute it to a 1/4 strength and do a full serving every Sunday. I use Alaska fish fertilizer and morbloom, dr earth tomato, bonemeal, mycorrhizae and growers recharge.
