Brinjal plants grows best in a well-drained sandy loam or loam soil that is good in organic matter
Select a well drained pot with drainage holes so that they would help to drain out excess water present in the soil so as to reduce the risk of root rot.
Fill the pot with two parts potting soil and one part sand. Mix organic fertilizer to the soil balanced ratio of 20-20-20 of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium
Sow the brinjal seeds over the potting mix and cover them with thin layer of soil
Water regularly and the seeds generally germinate within 2-3 weeks
After 30 days, sapling would have grown by 3 to 4 inches and will be ready for transplanting.
During transplanting you may need to carefully slide a gardening trowel into the side of the pot and remove the saplings and plant them in individual pots
