I have eggplant in my garden, thus far i have had many flowers and no fruit, what should i do to help them?

Answer 1

The blooms will eventually turn into fruit. Are the blooms falling off and no fruits appear? Try side-dressing the plant with some well-rotted manure or well-aged compost to encourage the fruits.
just be patient and fruits (or vegetables in this case) will develop from those blossoms in no time. Eggplants need much heat to blossom and produce. If I may, I'd like to suggest a spray of Epsom Salts on the blossoms.

For the Epsom Salts spray, just dilute a teaspoon into a spray bottle of warm (NOT HOT) water. Shake till incorporated and spray the entire plant till runoff. Try to do this early in the morning and not in direct sunlight. Even though I know it won't harm or burn the leaves, it's always best to be on the safeside and spray ANYTHING either early in the morning or late in the day, when the sun's off a plant.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

A lot of plants have a first bloom of male flowers followed by a bloom of female flowers. The female flowers are the ones that turn into the fruit or vegetable. If the flower only has a stem under it, its male. If it has an ovary (swelling) right underneath the flower its female. The swelling is the fruit. Check that first before you go crazy with fertilizers and stuff.

Answer 3

two things are possible ,first use a feather duster to tickle flowers touching one after the other therefore cross pollinating them and secondly fine mist spray flower in the cool of the night or early morning to set the fruit use a mixture of sugar and water it helps a weak solution

Answer 4

Change your fertilizer. Some help plants grow, Some help the plant flower and so forth.
Go to your plant nursery and they can tell you what kind to use.
