GreenlyWhen to plant eggplant in Khmelnytskyi
In Khmelnytskyi, eggplant: sow seedlings around 6 March for the greenhouse and around 27 March for open ground; plant into a greenhouse around 15 May; plant out into open ground around 5 June.
Last spring frost around 18 April, first autumn frost around 23 October. Frost-free days: 188 days.
The dates follow the Greenly calendar: open ground a week after the last frost once the soil is warm enough for the crop, frost-hardy crops three weeks before it, an unheated greenhouse three weeks earlier, seedlings sown so they are ready on the day. In a cold year allow a week or two more.
