An early start can really help with aubergine crops. Sow aubergine seeds indoors, supplementing light if sowing early. Sow seeds on the surface of a free draining, moist peat free compost and just cover with vermiculite or compost. Place somewhere warm with a minimum temperature of 21C. Germination takes 10-14 days. Once plants are roughly 20cm high, feed weekly with a quarter strength organic feed. Â
Plant out after all risk of frost has passed. Grow aubergines in a sheltered position in full sun. Aubergines will perform better when grown in a greenhouse or polytunnel. Water regularly to prevent buds from dropping.
