How to Grow Perfect Eggplants Every Time - 5 MISTAKES to Avoid

Nice video, very usefull!

I’m struggling! My eggplants leaves are starting to turn brown and some are crispy brittles but not all of them. I planted them in August I live in Florida and I just need to know if I should cut the problem leaves / stems off??

Very good, insightful video! I've had bumper crop years, and others where the fruits were few and small. Thank you for the knowledge!

😊

I’m in Texas weather and my eggplant didn’t survive? When would you suggest I start over???

Thank you, this year was the first time I planted eggplant and really knew nothing about the care of the plants. This video has been very helpful and I believe mine are ready to harvest now. I planted lettuce also, never having done that before either and unfortunately they bolted so I’m cutting them back to the stem and moving them more in a shaded area. We’ve had relentless heat this summer so I know now to grow them in a different area of my yard with less sun. But thank you again for the info on my Eggplants. I subscribed to you, seeing as vegetable gardening is new to me, I will be seeking out your advice more I’m sure. Thanks

If they're overripe and bitter soak the slice eggplant in salty water before cooking.

I am growing eggplants for the first time this year. My plants have looked great and I have fruit on each variety (Ping Tung and Black Beauty) However the fruit seems to get to a certain size (Black Beauty-about tennis ball size) and they do not get any larger. They have remained this way for weeks. One of the fruits have even started to turn a yellowish-gold brown color. I have gotten one fruit off the Ping Tung, but they never get that pretty purple like yours in this video. Is there something I can do to get the fruit to grow bigger? They seem to be stunted. Thanks for any input you can give!

First time growing an eggplant. I did not suspect how productive this plant is!
I really do not see how you can mess up this plant!

I like an love it

i put two eggplants out mid may. i have not been pruning and i have a bunch of fruit on both. plant 🎉hem in tires they absorb heat

What a great video! Learned so much. Can't wait for harvest!

I love eggplants!

Thank you!! This was very helpful. I am new to growing pot veggies and fruits. I decided on eggplants to be my first and realized my errors or "why?'

The way you asked for the like/sub was genuine af. So I gotchu 👍.

I live in Perth Australia so warmth is not a issue. I planted Italian and Beefsteak tomatoes in Autumn (Fall) and they have grown very strong, it is winter here now and they are producing very nice tomatoes, so I am hopeful for my Eggplants that I plan on planting at the end of winter <3

Help! I transplanted a Japanese Eggplant and it's getting too big for its container. Can I transplant it or cut the bottom out out of the container and add a deeper container below it?

Honestly like

Mine are in dirt, and doing ok.
What can I give them to help them push their growth?

Ha! I just came in from planting out my eggplants and it is 50 degrees at night. Wish I saw this video an hour earlier...
