- Temperature and Sunlight: Place the pots or trays in a warm location with temperatures around 70-85°F (21-29°C) and provide ample sunlight or artificial light.
- Transplanting: Once the seedlings have grown several sets of true leaves and the outdoor conditions are suitable, transplant them into larger containers or into the garden. Space them about 18-24 inches apart.
- Maintenance: Provide support like stakes or cages for the plants as they grow. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and control weeds. Water regularly and fertilize with a balanced fertilizer as needed.
- Harvesting: Harvest eggplants when they reach the desired size and color. Use pruning shears to cut the eggplants from the plant.
