How to Sow and Plant

Soak seeds for several hours before planting to enhance germination
Sow seeds about ¼ inch deep in well-draining, nutrient-rich soil
Keep the soil consistently moist without waterlogging to support healthy seedling growth
Place the seed tray or pot in a warm, bright location to encourage faster sprouting
Maintain gentle, even moisture using a spray bottle to avoid disturbing the seeds
Transplant seedlings to larger containers or the garden once they develop strong roots and true leaves

How to Grow

Provide full sun to partial shade to ensure strong growth and healthy fruit development
Water regularly to maintain even soil moisture while preventing soggy conditions
Apply a balanced fertilizer during the active growing season to support vigorous growth
Protect young trees from frost and extreme cold, as seedlings are sensitive to low temperatures
Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
Prune lightly to maintain structure and encourage better airflow and fruiting

Tips

Start seeds indoors in cooler regions before transplanting outside
Mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and suppress weeds
Prune the tree to manage size and encourage proper airflow
Provide light support for branches once the tree becomes established
