I planted these in the Harvest seed starter the same time I planted Napa cabbage and bok choy.
The cabbage and bok choy are already thriving outdoors.
The little guys are just starting. I had completely given up on them!
My Fairy Tale eggplant seeds should be here soon. Sure hope they get off to a faster start!

Those pods do have algae because they have been under the lights so long.

They are growing. They will soon be transferred to a DIY hydroponic unit because I have no available Bounty space.

I posted this picture in my DIY hydro thread, but will also post it here for those who are following the little eggplants' progress.

All looks great! What lights are you using for your DIY-DWC project?

AG 45 watt panels, clumsythumbs.
I have several suspended above my grow area and I turn them on as needed.

After I unplugged the airstone and one plant died, I gave this project up for dead. I removed the airstone line, effectively turning this into a Kratky system.
It looks like it is going to make it after all, although it is not really thriving.
I am planning to change the nutrients every 2 weeks.

I think it has decided it wants to live.

Little eggplant fruits are popping up all over the plant. At least a dozen with lots more on the way!
They are really loving Kratky!
