Do you want to grow a lot of eggplants well you have come to the right place I have eggplant plants here that are loaded with eggplants look at all the eggplants on this plant there are about 20 eggplants on this is one plant now first of all when to start

Your eggplants now you can start your eggplants indoors from seed at least 6 to eight weeks before your last frost state so here in zone 9 our last frost St is towards the end of March so start your eggplants indoors in the first week of February in zone 9 and above and for

Every zone lower than zone 9 add 15 days for Zone 8 start them in mid-February Zone 7 end of February zone 6 the first week of March and zone five and below in mid-march and in southern hemisphere you can start eggplant seeds in August or September eggplants are little slow

Gring that’s why you must start your eggplants from seeds in indoors rather than direct seating in the ground because if you direct seat in the ground you won’t get any eggplants until fall which might be too close to your first Frost this way you’re going to miss out

On the peak production days in summer eggplants love hot weather so as soon as the weather warms up above 75° fah or 24° C eggplant plants take off the plants start to produce eggplants 3 months after sewing the seeds so for me in zone 99 eggplants starts to produce

In May you can grow a variety of eggplants there a lot of varieties out there the main two varieties I like to grow are Black Beauty eggplants and the long Japanese eggplants eggplants need proper spacing the plant spacing should be 2 ft apart which is 60 cm and row

Spacing should be 3 ft apart which is 90 CM next selecting the right area for your eggplants now eggplants Love full sun and they love the heat eggplants are really heat tolerant so if you live in a region the gets really hot above 10 14° f height and 40° C you can definitely

Grow eggplants along with okra okra is another one that really likes the heat as well so make sure you plant your eggplants in an area that receives full sun next up fertilizing and ground preparation now eggplants love Rich organic matter so add enough compost and manure into your ground that eggplants

Will absolutely love it use about 2 lb or 1 kg of compost for each plant mix the compost really well with your native soil if you’re planting in ground or you can mix it really with the potting soil if you’re growing your eggplants in pots or containers when growing eggplants in

Containers the minimum size of the container should be 5 gallons or 50 l number four watering now watering or keeping correct amount of moisture in the soil is an art in itself now most people do everything else and the one thing they fail on is providing etiquette water to their plants every

Plant need is different so research the vegetables that you’re growing and water accordingly now eggplants love deep watering and infrequent watering so when the temperatures not too high in Spring and early summer water your plants with 2 L or half a gallon of water every 3 days when the temperature is really hot

In Midsummer water your plants with 2 L or half a gallon of water every other day 4 months after starting the seeds eggplants start to produce a lot that’s when they are at the peak of their production every single plant can produce about 7 to 10 eggplants every

Week well check out this eggplant plant here look at all the eggplants on it this is loaded now the fifth thing you must do to keep your eggplants producing is to pick often don’t let your eggplants start to produce seed on the plant when the eggplants ripen and

Start to produce seed the plant thinks it has fulfilled the purpose of its life and it will no longer make any more flowers or eggplants so keep picking often the more you pick the more expence will produce so if you follow these techniques you can grow a lot of

Eggplants a family of four only needs about 2 to three eggplant plants well this Harvest is just from 12 plants and we Harvest them every 3 days now like I said eggplants are very heat tolerant if you want to know more vegetables that are heat tolerant check out this video

And I’ll see you another video

  1. Can you please let me know eggplant seed variety you purchased and from where? last year the long Japanese eggplant I planted did not produce well

  2. When plant is done producing, goes to seed; do you pull it out of ground & compost or leave it for next season?

  3. Jag thanks for your excellent advice. I'm zone 9B, Fresno/Clovis area, so your advice is always spot on for me. I agree, Black Beauty and Japanese are what I usually plant when I plant. We love grilling them.

  4. great video as always, jag!
    even though i don't much care for eggplants, nor plan on growing them, i still like to see how you approach growing things.

  5. I live in 8b in Texas and the heat killed my eggplant. Multiple 110+ days. Even in shade. The few I got were small and bitter.

  6. Great video, Jag. Loved the addition of adding starting dates to each zone. Very helpful. I grow eggplants ironically, I hate them, but donate produce to local soup kitchen. I plant more as trap crop for flea beatles, but they still produce.

  7. Why do my eggplant flowers drop off and not set fruit? I drip water daily and the tomatoes and capsicums in the same bed are stting lots of fruit.
