Hello friends!
this time I will provide a way to plant eggplant on polybag media very easily and we can also plant it behind the house or in front of the house like I do this

This eggplant plant can grow well in areas with a height of 40 cm to 150 cm. A good temperature for planting eggplant is around 22 ° C-30 ° C, soil pH around 6.3-7.3. Plant eggplant in a place that gets enough sunlight

*Seedlings and Seedling

Eggplant seeds are obtained from old eggplants, if you find it difficult to make the seeds of the aunt you can buy them at the farm shop. Choose quality seedlings so that the resulting eggplant has quality. After the seedlings are there, then the seedlings are soaked in slightly warm water for about 10 minutes. Then do seeding, make seedlings from a mixture of soil and charcoal charcoal. After the seedling land is finished, seed the seedlings on the seedling land and give a distance of about 1 cm between seedlings so that later when the roots have grown, they are not mutually entangled. Do watering the seeds of seeds regularly in the morning and evening by sprinkling them so that the seedlings are not carried away by water. After about 1 month old, the seeds can be moved to pots or polybags

*Planting Process

Prepare the planting media first to plant eggplant which is in the form of soil mixed with fertilizer or rice husk charcoal. Then input the planting media in the planting pot or poly bag, make a planting hole in the planting media with a depth of about 5 to 10 cm. Plant the seeds in the planting hole that is made, select the seeds that grow normally which at least have 4 leaves. In each polybag or pot only one seed is planted

*Eggplant Care Treatment

After planting
Do regular watering in the morning and evening to taste. Fertilization also needs to be done but just use organic fertilizer because later eggplant will be consumed. Dry or diseased leaves should be removed so as not to spread to others. Do weeding on weeds if there are weeds around the plant. In order for plants not to collapse easily if exposed to the wind, give a stick or trellis made of bamboo with a length of about 100 cm and a width of 3 or 4 cm and then stuck near the eggplant plant, then tie it with the eggplant plant

*Harvest Stage

Eggplant can be harvested for the first time when it is around 3 taua 4 months after planting, harvesting is either done in the morning or evening, harvesting the eggplant should be picked by the stem. After the first harvest, the next harvest can be done every 3 to 7 days. Eggplant plants can produce eggplant for up to 5 or 6 months
