Start seeds indoors 5 weeks before the last frost date. Allow plenty of room per plant. At least a foot on either side. Eggplants are hungry so plant up with compost. When transplanted give plenty of space between plants. A little over a foot should be ok. Pick when full size. Pick regularly. For outdoor sowing plant in fertile soil 90cm apart, in rows spaced 90-120cm apart.
