I have eggplant and pepper seeds that are starting to sprout now......... :weee I see 5 or 6 eggplant seedlings already. Once the first sprouts they all just pop up, one after the next.
I had the trays of seeds germinating in the boiler room since its nice and warm there. The seeds sprouted pretty fast for eggplants maybe since i soaked the seeds.

I hope i don't run out of room here:

Is it ok to plant eggplants where I planted tomato's the year before? Normally I rotate peppers/tomato's. Hottest part of garden is where tomato's were last year.
They are from the nightshade family, same family as tomato's, so no you probably wouldn't want to plant them there.

I was just deciding where to put plants this year and wrote about rotating crops on my website: http://www.betterhensandgardens.com/2010/04/04/garden-crop-rotation-a-simple-system/

Hope this helps.
