Growing tips

You should grow eggplants in nutrient-rich soil in a sunny, warm location. To prevent the plants from bending, you can tie them up. As with tomatoes, side shoots should be removed by breaking them off directly at the base. From time to time, it is worth removing some of the fruit shoots so that the remaining fruit ripens better. Really classy-looking eggplant with fully oval fruits of a very good length. The taste is creamy and delicious. Harvestable from a size of 5 cm and can be harvested over a long period of time. We had new fruits every week from July to the end of September. When they reach a harvest size of 10 cm, don't wait too long, cut the fruits off the plants and eat them straight away. They can also be stored in the fridge for several weeks, as they are freshly harvested when you grow them yourself and therefore keep much longer. Growing height 50cm
