Fatty Seeds – Mini Eggplant
Mini Eggplant is a compact variety of eggplant known for its small, tender fruits and mild, slightly sweet flavour. Commonly used in stir-fries, soups, stews and grilled dishes, it is a versatile addition to home-cooked meals. Thriving in warm tropical climates like Singapore, Mini Eggplant is suitable for growing in large pots or garden beds, making it a great choice for home gardening.
Planting Guidelines:
-
Sow the seeds in well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, approximately 0.5–1cm deep. Space the plants 40–60cm apart to allow sufficient room for healthy growth. Seedlings can be transplanted into larger pots or garden beds once they develop 4–5 true leaves.
-
Seeds typically germinate within 7–14 days under suitable warm conditions, and the fruits can be ready for harvesting in approximately 90–120 days from sowing. Harvest the eggplants when they reach their mature size and have firm, glossy skin. Regular harvesting helps encourage continuous fruit production.
-
Mini Eggplant grows best in full sunlight, preferably receiving at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during flowering and fruit development. Ensure good drainage and provide support if needed to prevent branches from bending under the weight of the fruits.
