FAQs

What if my brinjal flowers fall off without fruit?
Usually caused by stress, crowding, or nutrient imbalance. Try reducing watering slightly, ensure 6+ hours of sun, and feed with NPK 5-15-45 during flowering.

What size grow bag works best for baingan?
Use one 12–14 inch grow bag per plant. Avoid planting more than one in smaller bags — roots get crowded and yield suffers.

Why is my baingan fruit pale or dull?
Usually a sign of poor sun exposure or overripe harvest. Move to brighter spot and harvest while fruits are still glossy.
