How to Grow Brinjal

When to Sow

• January–April (spring) or July–August (monsoon)

Where to Grow

• Use 10–12 inch pots, large grow bags, or any full-sun bed with drainage

Sowing Instructions

• Mix 2 parts soil + 1 part vermicompost
• Ensure the mix is moist but not soggy
• Sow 1–2 seeds per pot, at 0.5 cm depth
• Mist lightly and keep in warm light (avoid harsh sun before sprouting)

Germination & Transplant

• Germinates in 6–10 days
• Transplant once seedlings have 4–5 true leaves or reach 4–6 inches
• Don’t bury the stem too deep
• Water carefully after transplant — soil should stay moist, not wet
• Use a small stake if plants bend in breeze or sun

Fertilizer & Care

• Before Planting: Mix vermicompost into soil
• Every 15 Days: Feed with NPK 20-20-20 for foliage
• At Flowering: Switch to NPK 5-15-45 for fruiting
• Pest Spray: Apply Neem Oil every 10–12 days for leaf curl or aphids
• Spacing: Keep 10–12 inches between plants to avoid crowding

Local Gardeners Tips

• Stake plants once flowering starts to avoid bending
• Pick fruits while shiny and firm — don’t wait till they soften
• Water only when top inch of soil is dry
• In monsoon, elevate pots slightly to improve drainage
• Avoid placing pots in partial shade — baingan needs full sun

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.
