Hello. I'm a slightly experienced gardener, but this year I'm growing in a new house and garden. Amazingly this house came with a huge veg patch, a polytunnel and a huge conservatory with nice deep windowsills. I've been sowing seeds for all I'm worth (I find those 18-egg cardboard boxes with rigid plastic lids make ideal unofficial propagators), including aubergines (Black Beauty). They've germinated well (if slowly), but I've noticed some of the seedlings at 2-leaf stage are seeming to shrivel from the tips inwards, shrivelling right down to a tiny thin line of brown leaf. I know aubs like heat, but I wondered if they maybe needed a wee bit of shade? Our conservatory faces south and has no blinds or shading whatsoever so gets ridiculously hot on a sunny day.
