Description Packet Details
 
Aubergine Moneymaker is a medium height plant with standard shaped dark fruits, averaging 100g in weight per fruit, an early maturing variety (July).

SOW:   April in a cold greenhouse

HARVEST:  August


WHERE TO SOW:

Although in super protected environments (like central London!) it is possible to grow Aubergine's outside, for the rest of us, sow indoors in March or in a cold greenhouse in April.

Sow the seeds in a mixture of garden soil and compost. Lay the seeds on the surface and sprinkle a small amount of compost. Water from below.

WHAT TO DO NEXT:  

By April transfer seedlings to 3 inch pots, and then in May finally into 9 inch pots in their final position in the greenhouse.
In June Stake and tie the plants as needed and then feed with a high potash feed once the 3rd fruit has formed.
Continue to water and feed until harvest in late August and September.

GENERAL INFO:  Native to India, the name 'Eggplant' developed in the US because some of the European Cultivars developed in the 18th century were white or gold and resembled hens' eggs.
