saltmarsh,
Thank you sooo much for explaining how to save seeds. I would have though running a blender on them would have ruined them! And does the male/female explain the difference in size of fruit? I dont' think I've ever gotten any 18-inch eggplants. I think I need to try your seeds!
I guess I didn't take any pictures of the ugly eggplants - lol! That's one thing I have to better about this year, being a more objective in my documentation... you can see some bits of brown on here but later on, the patches seemed to get bigger...
