Eggplant "Black Beauty"
Eggplant "BLACK BEAUTY" - Solanum melongena.
A popular mid-season variety. The plant is fast growing, compact, 55-55 cm high.
The fruits are glossy, purple-black, 10-12 cm long, weighing 200-250 g. The flesh is greenish, dense, of excellent taste.
Aubergines are highly appreciated in vegetarian cuisine for high nutritional value. Used fresh, fried, steamed, can be preserved. Higher yields can be expected when grown under cover. Productivity is 4.5-6.0 kg/m2.
1 gram = 190-230 seeds.
Agricultural technology.
Eggplant prefers sandy and loamy fertile soils rich in organic matter. The best predecessors: onions, carrots, pumpkins, legumes. Grow through seedlings. Sowing of seeds is carried out in the second decade of March. In the phase of 1-2 true leaves, the seedlings dive.
Transplant seedlings into the ground at the age of 60-70 days, when the threat of frost has passed. Planting density - up to 5 plants per 1 m2. Further care consists in regular feeding, weeding and loosening. In the northern regions, eggplant can only be grown in protected ground: in film greenhouses, greenhouses and under temporary film shelters.
