Growing Note: "Nightshades are heavy feeders that thrive in the heat of summer. For the best performance, ensure your soil is rich in organic matter and provide consistent, deep watering to prevent blossom-end rot. In your Precision Plot, space these plants according to our 'Precision Planting Blueprint' to ensure adequate airflow and sunlight, which is critical for preventing late-season blights."
