Eggplant Seeds - Purple Shine - Hybrid - 1 Oz ~6250 Seeds - Non-GMO, F1 Hybrid - Asian Garden Vegetable

Eggplant Seeds - Purple Shine - Hybrid.Solanum melongena. 65 days. NonGMO. Open pollinated. Warm season annual. This is a popular Chinese type eggplant variety. Fruits are firm and have a shiny purple skin and average 9-11" in length and 1.5-2" diameter. Plants are productive with high yields. Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence (80-90°F minimum). Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Transplant in late spring/ summer (soil temperatures at least above 75°F) in a very warm and sunny location. Eggplants are heavy feeders so use a balanced fertilizer. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruit. Use stir-fried, braised, steamed, deep-fried, baked or boiled. A popular Chinese dish stir-fries eggplant with bean sprouts, peppers and tomatoes. Approximately 6250 seeds per ounce.
