Something is going on with these, I always had the oblong shaped eggplants but it seems normal on some sites.
How bunk is this review? 6 weeks, HA HA!
jamiesan has some magic dirt or something.
"Again, I live in an area that has a short growing season but I really wanted to grow my own ingredients for babaganoush...and I did. I planted the seeds directly in the soil and within a month and a half I harvested my first beautiful eggplant. These beauties grow large and keep well once removed from the plant. The taste is superb and I harvested eggplant all the way into October....maybe November if I recall. These plants produce very well. Will be planting again this year."
