iBrinjal ijwayele kwenta kahle emhlabatsini loyisanti lokhona kundlulisa kahle emanti. Lesihlahla senta kahle emhlabatsini lone pH lengu 5.5 kuya ku 6.5.
Lomhlabatsi kufuneka ulungiswe kube nentfo levundzisa umhlabatsi longetulu kushobela nga 40 cm ngoba ngulapho khona timphandze tikhula khona.
Ungakahlanyeli umhlabatsi kufanelwe ulungiswe kahle, ulungiswe kahle kufika ku 100 cm ngekushona emhlabatsini ngoba letinye timphandze te Brinjal tingakhula tibe tindze nga 1 mitsa. Lomhlabatsi kufanele uhlale utsambisiwe uhlobile futsi ucondzile.
Brinjal sihlahla lesikhula lapho kushisa khona, senta kahle etindzaweni letifana ne subtropical kanye ne tropical. Iphindze ikhule etindzaweni letishisako eMediterranean.
Lesihlahla asivani nendzawo lebandza kakhulu, kukhula kuyatsikameteka endzaweni lebandza ngaphansi kuka 160C. iphindze ingeti kahle etindzaweni letishisa kakhulu kundlula ku 350C.
Yenta kahle etindzaweni letishisa emini nasebusuku lokushintjana kusuka ku 180C kuya ku 280C.
