Growing Eggplant, also Aubergine

View the Eggplant page

15 Apr 09 ray (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
My six eggplant have been cropping since october and are going stronger than ever, they over 2 meters height. Each plant has delevered in excess of 15-20 fruit each. They are in a new garden bed that was based on well rotted horse manure. I have sprayed carbaryl twice in the peak of summer as the friut got attacked by a white grub. i sprayed mancozeb once after the leaves were looking sad. i plan to keep them going over the winter for a second season.
