How to Sow Seeds

• For growing brinjals on terrace/ balcony, fill a medium-size pot with potting mix and sow one seed 1/4 inch deep in it.
• If you have a garden, sow the seeds directly 0.5 inch deep in the ground and cover them with soil. Maintain a space of 6 inches between two seeds.

Seed Care

• Water the seeds every day so the soil remains moist.

How to Care for Brinjal

Sunlight: Keep the brinjal plants where they can get 6-8 hours of good sunlight and grow happily.

Watering: Water brinjal plants regularly during the summer season to keep the soil moist. In rainy and winter months, water accordingly so the soil doesn’t remain dry.

Soil: Brinjals thrive well in fertile, sandy loam soil with good drainage. You can also add compost or mulch to improve soil fertility and encourage growth.

Fertilizer: Brinjals are hardy plants and don’t require special fertilizer. However, for better growth, you can fertilize them every month with cow manure.

Pests and Diseases: Spider mites and mealybugs can affect the growth of the baigan plants. So look for early signs of infections and use the right pesticide.

Harvesting: Brinjals are ready to harvest after 120-130 days of sowing the seeds. You identify fully-grown baigans with their color and size.
