Oval Green Eggplant is a reliable F1 hybrid eggplant variety. These eggplant seeds grow into sturdy, well‑branched plants that produce abundant plump, oval‑shaped, glossy bright‑green fruits. The flesh is thick and tender with mild flavor, ideal for stir‑frying, stewing and diverse home cooking recipes. This hybrid shows solid plant vigor and good adaptability for warm‑season open‑field cultivation. Full‑sun growing position supports healthy plant development and stable fruit setting. Monitor common eggplant pests such as aphids and spider mites throughout the growing cycle. Maintain evenly moist soil and avoid waterlogged conditions. Apply balanced fertilizer before blooming, and potassium‑rich fertilizer during fruiting period to harvest high‑quality plump eggplants.
Planting Instructions Soil Preparation Pick a full‑sun location with excellent drainage. Mix sufficient well‑rotted organic compost into loose fertile loamy soil. Avoid low‑lying water‑logged plots.
Seed Pre‑treatment Choose plump undamaged seeds. Soak seeds in warm water for 6‑8 hours before sowing to improve germination rate. Cold stratification is not required.
Sowing Method Sow after frost risk is completely gone and soil warms up. Place 2‑3 seeds per hole, cover with 1‑2 cm fine soil. Plant spacing 50‑60 cm, row spacing 70‑80 cm. Retain 1 strong seedling per hole after thinning. Staking is suggested when plants bear heavy fruits to prevent lodging.
Germination Condition Optimal germination temperature:22‑30°C. Seedlings emerge within 7‑12 days. Keep soil moderately moist, avoid over‑watering.
Daily Maintenance Keep soil moisture stable. Apply balanced fertilizer before flowering, switch to potassium‑rich fertilizer once fruits start forming. Remove weeds on time. Control common vegetable pests. Harvest fruits while skin remains glossy, before over‑ripening.
