Aubergines


Aubergines are among the seeds that we planted in early January. These little fellas went in on the 5th. I read in my veg magazine (I'm a veg nerd) that because our summers are so short, it's important to get aubergines going indoors so that they are ready to fruit the second it is sunny enough outside. They are slow growing so should be manageable enough indoors till April. Me and Hugh have a really sunny windowsill they can live on in the meantime.


This is how big they are now. As soon as a few appeared I took of the plastic lid and as soon as the little guy in the middle is a bit bigger I'll put them in their own little paper pots.

I got the seeds from Real Seeds, and they are of the variety "Diamond".
