Eggplants are easy to care for if you know a few tricks.
In this article, we will tell you the secrets of growing eggplants.
How to grow eggplant seedlings
Eggplants are heat-loving plants. Therefore, seedlings should be planted only when the weather is consistently warm outside.
Seedlings can be started to grow in early February.
Water the seedlings regularly and do not allow the soil to dry out.
However, overwatering the plant will cause disease and death of the roots.
Temperature and light conditions are also important for good seedling growth.
Fertilize eggplant seedlings with ammonium nitrate.
This is an effective nitrogen fertilizer. It goes well with potassium sulfate.
This will saturate the plants with nitrogen and potassium nutrition and ensure good growth and development of seedlings.
How to grow eggplants in open ground
For a rich eggplant harvest, it is important to choose loose soil rich in nutrients.
In addition, to grow vegetables, it is important to fertilize them regularly.
To do this, alternate organic and mineral fertilizers.
To fertilize, use liquid fertilizers after watering.
Apply fertilizer only to the near-root zone and avoid spraying.
