Aubergine Moneymaker F1 Seeds
Vegetable Seeds from Sow Seeds Ltd
Aubergine Moneymaker F1 is an excellent all-rounder producing a crop of about 8 large (about 100g) purple, shiny delicious fruits that don't have a bitter taste that some varieties do. It is an early maturing aubergine.
Aubergines can be grown outside in very sheltered sunny sites next to a south facing wall in the south, if the weather is very good but it is really best to grow them undercover. They require long hot periods to crop & our weather is very unpredictable.
The best & most reliable crops are produced in polytunnels/greenhouses in their soil or in containers or grow bags.
Aubergine Moneymaker Vegetable Seed Information
| Seed Quantity: | Approx 25 seeds per pack. |
| Site: | Polytunnel/greenhouse. |
| When to Sow: |
January to March undercover at 20C.
|
| How to Sow: |
Sow 2 seeds to a module and if both seeds germinate - thin out weakest seedling. When 10cm tall 'prick out' into pots and keep at 18-20C. Transplant into greenhouse soil when first flowers appear, space 40cm each way or 1 plant to a 20cm pot or 2 to a grow bag and keep indoors. When plant reaches 20cm tall 'pinch out' growing tip to encourage it to bush out.

| Care: |
Containers can be moved outside if the weather is very hot and brought back in if it turns cold. Support stem with a cane as this helps as the fruits become heavy. As soon as the flowers set mist with tepid water to encourage a good fruit set (this also helps to deter red spider mite). Feed with potash rich tomato feed once a week when the first fruit has set. Once 7-8 fruits have set remove other flowers to encourage the plants energy into producing good aubergines.
|
| Harvest: | August to mid-October whilst the fruits are still shiny and about 10-15cm long by cutting with a sharp knife. |
