Additional Information

Growing Information

Sowing Info

An early start can really help with aubergine crops.  Sow aubergine seeds from January to April indoors, supplementing light if necessary.  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  temperature of 18-21 C until after germination which takes 10-14 days.  Once plants are roughly 20cm high, feed weekly with a quarter strength organic feed.

Growing Info

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.
