Aubergines can be grown in pots, grow bags or in the border of a greenhouse and tunnel. Prepare the soil by digging in compost or well rotted manure add a granular fertiliser 2 weeks before planting.

 

Make sure plants are grown in full sun. 

 

Sow by planting 2 seeds in a 3mm pot either on a warm window sill or in a heated propagator the temperature for germination needs to be between 21 - 27 degrees. When the seedlings emerge remove the weaker one then when they get their first true leaves transplant into a larger pot to grow on.

 

If the plants are to be transplanted outside ensure they have been hardened off and all chance of frost has passed and ensure they are planted in a south facing sheltered spot. 

It's important to water regularly and feed with liquid feed fortnightly when the flowers appear.
