Eggplant Seeds - Talong Purple No.1. Heirloom, Non-GMO. Annual. Solanum melongena. 70 to 80 Days to maturity. Talong Purple Long #1 eggplant is one of the most popular grown eggplants in the Philippines. The fruit grows 6-8 inches long and has purple color skin with a green calyx. It is tolerant to bacterial wilt and Phomopsis rot. Start seeds inside 6 weeks before last frost date (or 8 weeks before expected transplanting date). Keep soil warm until emergence (80-90?F minimum). Seeds will not germinate in cool soil and planting out too early may affect plant vigor. Harden off plants carefully before transplanting. Prepare fertile, well-drained soil. Transplant in late spring/ summer (soil temperatures at least above 75?F) in a very warm and sunny location. Eggplants are heavy feeders so use a balanced fertilizer. Too much nitrogen will produce lush foliage and few fruit. Excellent for slicing for baking, grilling, roasting and frying. Use for making Tortang Talong.
