Eggplant planting a few years results
Eggplant planting, if the growth is good, usually about 80 days to bloom, fruit development and maturity need about 60 days. The growth cycle of solid seedling planting is longer, flowering takes 180-200 days, and the fruit matures in about 80 days.
Grafted egg fruit flowering and fruiting
Grafted eggshell pollination, fruit development 50-60 days, after late July can be harvested, the growth rate is faster.
Potted eggshell hanging fruit

Why egg fruit does not bear fruit
Egg in the flowering and fruiting period encountered high temperature and drought. If you don't water in time, the flower buds are hard to separate and slowly fall off, affecting the fruiting rate. In addition, low temperature adversity after the emergence of flower buds will also affect the fruiting.
Eggshell planting points
In order to effectively improve the quality and yield of eggshells, it is also necessary to strengthen the management of eggshell cultivation. Generally speaking, the soil for growing eggshells should be selected from fertile sandy loam, red loam and kaolin, and good drainage should be ensured to minimize the occurrence of waterlogging.
