Hi, Megamunchers!

Still trying to figure out your mystery. A few more ??s:

What variety of eggplant are you growing, and where'd you get the plant? Seeds? Store bought?

Upon further inspection of your pic, I notice they look a bit pale, which could be a result of over watering. "Sprinkler before sunrise," and then you "water it early in the morning as well..."

Could you post another picture, so I can see the whole plant? Maybe that'll give me a clue.

Pic #1 Pot Black Eggplants, picked at their prime. Notice how shiny they are. They range from ping pong ball to cutie oranges in size, and do very well in containers...

Pic #2 Pot Black Eggplants that have started going dull from being on the vine past their prime. These may be a tad bitter. Notice how they are changing color from the shiny black...

Pic #3 Listada de Gandia Eggplants, waaaay past prime. Notice how dull they are. Some are even turning yellow. The ones with the darkest stripes are probably the freshest of the lot, but they all will be very bitter....
