Very mild and sweet, the 10- to 12-inch-long, very slender fruit is a beautiful light-lime green. One of the best-tasting eggplants; it has a superb flavor and is very tender. Good yields on 2-to 3-foot tall plants. This heirloom from Thailand is becoming popular with gourmet chefs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips: \u003c\/strong\u003eThai Long Green grows best in full sun and nutrient-rich, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). This heat-tolerant plant requires consistent moisture, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Mulching around the base of the plant helps retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Use a balanced fertilizer or one slightly higher in phosphorus and potassium to encourage flowering and fruiting, while avoiding excessive nitrogen, which can cause leafy growth over fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59511051321630,"sku":"EG119","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/2280\/5022\/files\/retouched_thaliand_2015_eggplant_market_l1004116_850x850_85624077-e6a5-45ac-92de-40b34796cbe5.jpg?v=1782394651","url":"https:\/\/www.rareseeds.com\/products\/eggplant-thai-long-green","provider":"RareSeeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
