How to Plant Eggplant from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
  • Transplant seedlings outdoors when temperatures remain consistently above 60°F (16°C).

Preparing for Planting

  1. Choose a sunny location with fertile, well-draining soil.
  2. Loosen soil to a depth of 8-10 inches and enrich with compost.
  3. Space plants 18-24 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation.

Starting Indoors

  • Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed trays filled with a high-quality potting mix.
  • Keep soil at 75-85°F for optimal germination.
  • Expect seedlings to emerge in 7-14 days.

Transplanting Seedlings Outdoors

  • Harden off seedlings for 7-10 days before planting.
  • Space transplants 18-24 inches apart in rows 24-36 inches apart.
  • Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Pro Tip

Eggplants love warmth, so plant them in full sun and wait until nighttime temperatures stay above 10°C (50°F) before transplanting. Support the plants with stakes to keep heavy fruit off the ground, and harvest when the skin is glossy for the best flavor.

Bonus: Regular picking encourages more production!

Getting to know your Eggplant

Eggplant is a heat-loving vegetable producing glossy, purple, or white fruits. It requires full sun, warm temperatures, and well-drained soil. Eggplants grow 2-4 feet tall and mature in 70-90 days. They need consistent watering and staking for support. Commonly used in Mediterranean and Asian cuisine, eggplant absorbs flavors well. Pests like flea beetles and spider mites can damage leaves, requiring organic pest control measures.

What it's used for

1. Culinary Uses:

  • Eggplant is a staple in Mediterranean, Asian, and Middle Eastern cuisines.
  • Used in roasted, grilled, stir-fried, and baked dishes like ratatouille, baba ganoush, and eggplant parmesan.
  • Absorbs flavors well and is a great meat substitute in vegetarian dishes.

2. Nutritional Benefits:

  • Low in calories but rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins.
  • Contains nasunin, an antioxidant that supports brain health.
  • High in potassium and folate, beneficial for heart health.

3. Companion Planting & Soil Benefits:

  • Pairs well with peppers, basil, and marigolds to deter pests.
  • Helps improve soil structure when rotated with legumes.
Growth Requirements

Light:

  • Requires full sun (6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily).
  • Less sunlight results in smaller yields and slower growth.

Soil:

  • Prefers well-draining, fertile soil with a pH of 6.0-7.0.
  • Amending soil with compost and aged manure improves fertility.

Watering:

  • Needs consistent moisture, especially during flowering and fruit formation.
  • Water deeply 1-2 times a week, ensuring soil stays evenly moist.

Temperature & Climate:

  • Thrives in temperatures between 70-85°F (21-29°C).
  • Sensitive to frost; plant after the last frost date in your region.

Fertilization:

  • Requires balanced fertilization (10-10-10 or 5-10-10).
  • Avoid excessive nitrogen to prevent excessive foliage growth over fruit production.
Maintenance

Watering:

  • Keep soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging.
  • Mulching helps retain moisture and reduces soil temperature fluctuations.

Pruning & Staking:

  • Remove lower leaves to improve airflow and reduce disease risk.
  • Stake plants if necessary to support heavy fruiting branches.

Harvesting and Seed Collection

  1. When to Harvest:
    Pick eggplants when they are firm, glossy, and fully developed.
    Avoid waiting too long, as overripe fruits become bitter and tough.
  2. Collecting Seeds:
    Allow a few eggplants to fully mature and turn yellow.
    Scoop out seeds, wash, and dry them for next season’s planting.
Pests and Diseases
  • Common Pests: Flea beetles, aphids, spider mites.
    Use row covers, neem oil, or insecticidal soap.
  • Common Diseases: Verticillium wilt, powdery mildew.
    Ensure good air circulation and avoid overhead watering.
