I harvested the first crop in June. The variety turned out to be surprisingly high-yielding. Fruits of a round shape, unusual for a traditional eggplant. The vegetables taste delicious, they don't taste bitter at all. I made adjika from eggplant. Next year I will definitely plant the "Piglet" variety again.

Ivan Petrovich, 56 years old, Tver

The "Piglet" variety began to grow relatively recently: 3-4 years ago. Happy with the harvest. Every year I collect up to 5 kg of vegetables from one square meter of the garden. The variety is liked for its excellent taste. The pulp is tender, without the bitterness characteristic of many eggplants. I cook caviar from a vegetable, as well as marinate and preserve for the winter. I recommend to all gardeners as a high-yielding, unpretentious and tasty variety.
