GROWING CONDITION | They need fertile, well-drained soil. They can be grown from seed sown directly in the ground, but because they take a long time to fruit, speed up the process by growing them in trays four weeks before planting time, then plant the seeds when the ground warms up. Seeds will take about 2-3 weeks to germinate |
GERMINATION RATE | 90 TO 95 % |
KEY FEATURE | The seeds are small (about 2-3 mm diameter), flattened, pale brown, kidney shaped with leathery seed coat. |
Description | Brinjal seeds are sown on nursery beds to raise seedlings for transplanting in the field. Raised beds are necessary to avoid problem of water logging in heavy soils. In sandy soils, however, sowing can be taken up in flat beds. |
