🌿 How To Grow Long Brinjal at Home

Green long brinjal (लंबा बैंगन) is a heat-loving vegetable and should be transplanted into large pots or grow bags after starting in seed trays. Seeds germinate best at 18–30°C.

🌱 Sowing Method

• Use a seedling tray or small pot, fill with coco peat or seed-starting mix.
  
• Sow 2 seeds per cell, at a 0.5 cm depth.
  
• Avoid sowing too deeply as seeds are small.
  
• Keep the tray in a sunny spot and mist regularly using a spray pump.
  
• Germination occurs in 7–14 days.
  
• After 4 weeks, when seedlings are 12–15 cm tall, transplant into bigger pots.

Brinjal is a heavy feeder, so for best results:

• Mix organic fertilizers like vermicompost, cow dung, or neem cake into the soil.
