Germination/Propagation Top
Suggest a correction or add new data!| Maintain seeds at 20°C for 3 months, then transfer to 4°C for another 3 months. |
| Pulpy Coat Inhibits Germination: Seeds with a pulpy or fleshy outer coat need to have this material removed by soaking and rinsing in clean water daily for about a week. The inhibitory substances in the pulp are thus washed away, and germination rates improve. |
| 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. |
| seedlings must be grown at less than 20° and can overwinter at -20°, prick out while small, seed is viable for at least 6m |
