I once planted these in sacks and the harvest astonished me....it was beyond expectation!
These are brinjals, commonly known as 🍆 eggplant. They occur in different varieties, purple oval brinjals, long green, round green/purple and striped brinjals.
They are rich in fiber, vitamin B and K and minerals like potassium. They have low levels of calories and are a good source of antioxidants.
They require warm conditions, adequate sunlight and reliable water supply.
The soil should be deep, fertile, well drained with a pH of between 5.5-6.8.
