Growing quality eggplants is difficult, but possible.
With the right approach, they grow large, tasty and meaty.
The main task will be to adhere to four basic rules, says agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert for the online publication BelNovosti.
What are the main secrets?
Feed your plants on a regular basis
While some crops are quite neutral about fertilizing, the same cannot be said about eggplants. On the contrary, the crop is extremely dependent on nutrients.
If there are not enough of them, then the eggplants will grow small and not very tasty.
Temperature
It is important to remember that you will only be able to harvest a decent harvest of eggplants if you grow them in a greenhouse.
The fact is that the culture does not like changes and reacts extremely negatively to temperature changes.
Diseases
The third summer month is the peak of activity of various diseases, so the summer resident should be careful. Make sure not to allow the development of fungal diseases.
Mulch
The best growth and development of the crop is observed if you use mulch. An excellent option would be ordinary grass.
Mulch needs to be processed and changed periodically.
