SeeddeeS growing kit egg carton - Eggplant
Grow your white aubergine easily in the SeeddeeS® egg carton. Discover this exclusive vegetable that takes your dishes to the next level. This white aubergine has a much milder flavor than the purple variety. How fun is it to sow and grow this delicious vegetable yourself? The plant can grow 15–20 cm tall, and the aubergines can often be harvested between May and September.
Start sowing the aubergine indoors from February/March. Place it in a sunny, sheltered spot, as aubergines love warmth. Keep the soil moist, but not too wet. It is important to transplant (prick out) the seedlings once they start growing and develop leaves. Move each plant into its own pot to stimulate growth before planting them outside in May (preferably in a greenhouse).

Gebruiksaanwijzing
Step 1
Place all coco tablets on a saucer first.
Step 2
Add water, pouring it over the coco tablet so that it can fully absorb the water. Give it 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 3
When the coco is loose enough, place it back into the pot.
Step 4
Make a small hole and then place the seed (1 or 2) in it.
Step 5
Cover the seeds with a thin layer of coco material.
Step 6
Place a saucer under the pots; this makes watering easier. Do not give too much water to prevent the seed from moulding.
Step 7
When the seedlings are large enough (this will be between 10 and 20 days), they can be transplanted into a larger pot. Be careful when transplanting; the small plants are still very fragile.
Step 8
From May onwards, the plants can be put outside in a sheltered sunny spot. Continue watering and use, for example, wooden bamboo sticks to let the plant grow strong.
