Growing Eggplant, also Aubergine

View the Eggplant page

11 Feb 13 Elaine (Australia - sub-tropical climate)
My Eggplants are growing good. Keeping my eye some pests and squishing them. But the fruit seems to have a strange growth effect on them. The bases seem to be a green colour and the fruit seems to have like growth spurt makes on them. Can you please tell me why this is happening and what I can do to stop the marks occurring?
