Solanum melongena
A fellow Solanaceae — similar growing habits to Ground Cherry
Start Ground Cherry indoors about 6 weeks before your last frost, keeping seeds in warm soil (around 20–25 °C). Seeds usually come up in around 10 days. Move seedlings out once the danger of frost has passed, in full sun, spaced about 60 cm apart. Expect to harvest in roughly 70 days.
