I've never solved the flea beetle problem with my eggplant. My soil is good - everything grows well - I have a good amount of beneficial predators around, etc, but I've resorted to growing eggplant in pots. I've had good success. Last year I did Astrakom (good producer), Diamond (also good), and New York Improved (many fewer fruits than in-ground).
I'm trying Ping Tung Long and Rosita as well this year in containers. I'm looking for good production and I think I can achieve that, but if anyone has helpful hints for eggplants in pots, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!
