Hi Gail, you can harvest eggplants at pretty much any stage as long as the fruits have reached the size that you want. Grapefruit sized is actually pretty large for the average eggplant, so I would say that you can harvest and enjoy your striped eggplant!

I have a purple striped eggplant about the size of a small grapefruit. How do I know when it is ready to pick? My daughter brought it home from a garden supply where she works. We don’t know when it was planted.
Thanks,
Gail

Over this past summer, I planted a lot of nasturtiums around the perimeter of our veggie garden. I am convinced that they helped increase the amount of bees and other pollinators to the garden.

Thanks Shirley, I appreciate flowers too, especially when they are edible or precede an edible fruit or vegetable.

Hi Kenny,
I’m giving you “10-points” for this blog post on edible plant flowers! I love taking a moment to appreciate the ephemeral flowers from these edible plants that we don’t often appreciate (unless we are harvesting seeds).

Beautiful!
