Which ever way you want they germinate, use the 50/50 baggy method, or comunity pot. You can use heat to speed up bag germination. Seedling grow very slow.

easy to germinate and need three weeks to sprout out. Mature fruits were taken from a palm tree and pulps were taken out from fruits after three days washing them with tap water. The seeds were dried in shade by 7 days. Then they were soaked for one day in tap water with 15% of chlorine. They were planted into a mixture of Pecan Shells, vermiculite, lava sand, molasses, and cottonseed meal in an aluminum tray .Add was added and tray was covered tight with a plastic stock market. They stayed in my backyard underneath a tree getting indirect light. Water was added every week. Seeds began to germinate very fast on 25 days. In one month all seeds germinated. Average temperature in this part of Dominican Republic was 29 degrees Celsius

So very rewarding, bag method in perlite @ 29 to 34 C with bottom heat. So quick and strong growth they caught
me completely off guard. 3 weeks to germinate almost all seeds at once and some show the beginnings of sprouts.
Pre soak 24 hours and bleach wash, no fungicide used. Recommend to anyone. The problem with reviews is one reports
successes not failures this plant has evened the balance for me in opposition to disappointments inevitable
when experimenting amongst so many varieties.
