I'm trying to grow eggplants for the first time and i don't know how to look after them so any advice would be welcome.
Thank You
As far as pollinatint eggplants insects such as bees will take care of that.
Eggplants are pretty easy to grow, they like sunny places that is for sure. About 3 weeks before you think it is going to frost you can pinch off any blossoms you might see.
That will give the eggplants already set on a chance to grow to maturity before the freeze. (the eggplant will concentrate on ripening existing fruit instead of setting on new eggplants.)
Unfortunately, with the gobal honey bee crisis, we gardners now have to hand pollinate. There are several websites available to explain how.
