Cultivation: Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence. Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Plant in late spring/ summer in a warm and sunny location when soil temperatures are at least above 60°F. Eggplants are heavy feeders so use a balanced
fertilizer. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruits.
