Eggplant 'Casper'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water very often. Keep in mind when planting that Casper is thought of as tender, so it is really important to plant out well after your last frost date.

Start indoors eight weeks before last frost date.

Sow at a depth of approx. 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 1.95 feet (60.0 cm) between Eggplant plants. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Casper about 42 days before your last frost date.

As Casper is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
