ALIEN

The 'Alien' eggplant variety is an original early-ripening and high-yield variety with an unusual green fruit color, which distinguishes it from traditional eggplants. The fruits are large, with a mass ranging from 200 to 400 grams, and the flesh is white and non-bitter, making this variety especially attractive for home cooking and preserves. The seeds are large and light-colored, yet almost invisible in the flesh, with a germination rate reaching 100%. The 'Alien' plants are compact and of medium height, which facilitates their cultivation both in greenhouses and in open ground. Consumer readiness is reached 100-110 days after seedling emergence. Bushes form 2-3 fruits simultaneously, and with proper care and shaping, 3-5 strong side shoots are left, contributing to high yield - up to 6-7 kg per square meter in greenhouse conditions. For optimal growth, it is recommended to transplant seedlings in the phase of one true leaf and remove excess ovaries in late August, leaving 5-6 large fruits on the plant. The 'Alien' variety is characterized by unpretentiousness and good adaptation to various growing conditions. For successful growth of eggplants, it is recommended to use high-quality soil with the addition of biocompost, coconut coir, and vermiculite, ensure regular watering twice a week, and maintain a temperature of about 26 degrees. The compactness of the bushes and the pleasant salad-like hue of the fruits make this variety not only convenient to grow but also attractive to consumers who value tasty and healthy vegetables.
