How often should eggplant be watered?

When caring for eggplant, it is best to water it once a week. Generally, you can increase the watering frequency in summer, and water it once every three days or so.

When watering eggplant, you need to check whether the soil is completely dry. If it is dry, you need to water it so that water will not accumulate at the roots.

What kind of water should be used to water eggplant?

1. Tap water: Generally, tap water can be used to water eggplants, but it is best to let it settle for two days before watering, so that some impurities in the tap water can be settled.

2. Rice water: Rice water is more suitable for watering eggplants because it contains a lot of nutrients and is relatively easy to obtain.

What to do if you water your eggplant too much

1. Ventilation: If you water the eggplant more, you should ventilate it more. This will speed up the flow of air around it and thus accelerate the evaporation of water.

2. Drainage: If the eggplants planted in the ground are watered too much, you can first absorb the excess water, and then add some sand appropriately, which will help increase the air permeability of the soil and allow the water to evaporate quickly.
