Growing Information

Growing Epic Hybrid Eggplant

‘Epic,’ formerly known as ‘Dusky Hybrid,’ is a popular hybrid eggplant prized for its uniform fruits, heavy yields, and dependable garden performance. Compact plants produce glossy black, teardrop-shaped eggplants with excellent quality and a tender texture, making this variety a longtime favorite for home gardens and fresh-market growing.

Start ‘Epic’ indoors for transplanting about ¼ inch deep. Space plants 2 to 3 feet apart and grow in full sun. Its compact growth habit makes this variety especially well suited to smaller gardens while still producing impressive yields.

Ready to harvest in about 63 days, begin picking the fruits once they reach their mature size and develop a deep, glossy black color. Harvest while the fruits are still firm and tender for the best eating quality.

Tender, flavorful, and versatile, ‘Epic’ is excellent for fresh cooking, roasting, sautéing, grilling, and everyday kitchen use.

Epic Eggplant

The name is well deserved. I had 3 plants started from seed that produced over 80 eggplants. They just kept producing from about May until October. That included surviving a freak wind storm in May and a hurricane in July which both did some damage to the plants. In each case I just propped them back up and they never missed a beat. There are 8 out of 9 seeds sprouted in my small greenhouse and looking forward to the crop this season.

Great variety for my Gulf Coast area.
