Long Purple Eggplant (Solanum melongena)
In most regions of the U.S., start eggplant seeds indoors about 6 to 8 weeks before the date you will be transplanting the seedlings outdoors. Direct seeding in the garden is not recommended unless you live in an area where temperatures stay above freezing year round. Seedlings are sensitive to transplant shock so it’s best to start eggplant seeds in individual 2-4 inch diameter containers instead of trays or flats. Eggplants love warm temperatures.
