GreenlyWhen to plant eggplant in Murcia
In Murcia, eggplant: sow seedlings around 15 January for the greenhouse and around 5 February for open ground; plant into a greenhouse around 26 March; plant out into open ground around 16 April.
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.
