The experience of growing vegetables is beyond compare, the joy can only be felt.
I started the long purple eggplant variety which is hard to find here, and the taste of the curry prepared by my mother was continuously inspiring me to grow it.
I used a 5ltr vegetable oil plastic container to plant the sapling, the potting mix contained peat (50)+perlite(20)+vermi compost and other organic manure(20).
And weekly feed of a water soluble fertilizer was all it took.
The plant grew rapidly and soon started flowering.
This was the gift the plant gave me when I returned back from my overseas travel.
The very next day the curry was on my plate.
Oh it was delicious.
Thank you nature. I really owe a lot to you.
