Default Growing aubergines outdoors

Does anyone have any tips for growing aubergines
successfully outdoors.I have a fairly warm,but dry
limestone slope in Herefordshire,and grow my plants
in a greenhouse before planting out in June.Although
I did in lots of compost and water well initially and
then every fortnight,I never seem to get more than
about 20 small fruits from about 30 plants.I have been
growing the variety Black Enorma,and will try
Moneymaker next year
Best regards
Michael
