Seeds from this species ......very easy to germinate and need up to 1 month to
sprout.
Very easy to grow. Had roots 3 days after sowing. You take the outer layer of the seeds off and wth a sharp
knife cut the tip off of the seeds. be careful not to cut the seeds too much. Planted in moist peat moss on
top of a computer at about 85º-90ºF.

Seeds were pre-soaked in warm water for three days changed daily. Sown in moist peat and kept all the time at
32-33 d.C. Seeds started to sprout after 2 weeks of sowing, first leaves above soil - after 4 weeks. Seedlings
need a lot of water and excellent drainage - grow very fast and robust. All seeds sown developed into seedlings.

I had 100% germination rate using bottom heat in about two months, sown into a tray.

...easy to germinate and need up

Best when fresh, pull off the flesh, keep in moist semi-drained
container plant the seeds close together and pull their roots apart
easily later when they are 1-4 inches tall and when you notice that
most of them have germinated. I have done this with a 95% survival
rate. They do not require bottom heat or covering the container
that they are being grown in. This is of course in zone 10B FL over
the late winter/early spring months in this climate. These seeds
seem to be very easy they would rather have more water than less,
and were even left in standing water in their container for several
days without damage occurring to them.
