Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Eggplant seeds do not typically require any special preparation before planting. Sowing:
Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date or sow directly outdoors after the last frost has passed. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed trays or directly into well-prepared garden soil. Germination:
Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which usually occurs within 7-14 days when temperatures are consistently warm. Transplanting:
Transplant seedlings outdoors once they have 2-3 true leaves and the soil has warmed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows or in individual containers. Care and Maintenance:
Provide consistent water, especially during dry periods, to ensure even growth and prevent fruit bitterness. Stake or support plants as they grow to prevent the stems from bending or breaking under the weight of the fruit. Harvest fruits when they reach full size and have a glossy appearance, typically about 60-80 days after planting.
