How long is the growing period of eggplant?

The growth cycle of eggplant is about 2 months. It is generally divided into two varieties: early-maturing and late-maturing. The growth cycle of early-maturing varieties is about 2 months, and the growth cycle of late-maturing varieties is generally more than three months.

The growth and development stages of eggplant generally include seedling stage, flowering stage and fruiting stage. Early-maturing eggplant is planted around May and matures around July. Late-maturing eggplant is generally planted around May each year and harvested around August.

The growth process of eggplant

1. Seedling stage

The seedling stage is from the appearance of the first true leaf to the beginning of differentiation of flower buds, which generally lasts about a month.

2. Flowering period

The flowering period is when a large number of flowers bloom. Generally, the time of this stage will change depending on the environment. The flowering period of early-maturing varieties will be shorter.

3. Resulting Period

The fruiting period is generally when the fruits gradually mature and are harvested. This period is also relatively important. Generally, the temperature needs to be controlled to increase its yield.

Eggplant growth period maintenance and management

1. Maintenance during the seedling stage: The seedling stage requires more light, and generally it is necessary to ensure more than 6 hours of light a day.

2. Maintenance during the flowering period: The flowering period has relatively high requirements for the environment, and generally requires suitable temperature, humidity and ventilation conditions.

3. Maintenance during the fruiting period: It needs to be watered on time during the fruiting period, about once or twice a week will be enough.
