\ud83d\udcd6 Diary Highlights:<\/strong> A first-time eggplant grower asks when to start seeds indoors for a Zone 4 climate. While some growers start them in mid-February, others warn that under strong grow lights, early-started eggplants will turn into unmanageable “palm trees” before planting out.
