We’re vertically farming eggplants (aubergines) on aeroponic towers. From transplanting to the first harvest, it took 60 days of growth. It’s important to limit planting to two seedlings per growing section, positioned on opposite sides. This prevents overcrowding, reduces competition for space, and maximizes air circulation. Using this method, we grow 18 eggplant plants per tower. Harvest the fruit regularly to encourage continuous production, and be sure to use a grow cage or support structure since eggplant branches can get heavy and need support as the fruit develops. We’re currently growing two varieties: 1. Thanos eggplants – A large, deep purple Italian variety known for its bold flavor and impressive size. 2. Shinkansen eggplants – A slender, fast-growing Japanese variety with glossy skin and a tender, mild flesh. #eggplant #aubergine #farming #agriculture #gardening #hydroponics #aeroponics #soilless
