Germination/Propagation Top

Suggest a correction or add new data!

Expose seeds to natural outdoor winter conditions for 3 months, then gradually increase light and temperature in the spring.

Sow seeds immediately as their viability decreases rapidly, or they best germinate when fresh. If stored, seeds might need temperature cycling and patience to germinate.

wash and rinse daily in clean water x 14 days to remove pulp
