Rambutan fruit seed potting tutorial

1. Remove the seeds

Pick the ripe rambutan fruit, peel off the outer skin and flesh, clean the outer flesh, and then choose the plumpest and fullest seeds. After selecting the seeds, they cannot be sown directly. They need to be cleaned, washed in water, and then rubbed clean with your hands. In order to increase the germination rate, the seeds need to be soaked in water. Soak the seeds in warm water so that the seeds absorb water and swell. Then take them out and place them aside to dry.

2. Choose the soil

The soil used for sowing is also critical. It should be weakly acidic soil with good drainage. It should not be too sticky or dry. It needs to be disinfected before use to avoid infection by diseases and unnecessary trouble.

3. Start sowing

Place the processed seeds evenly in the soil, keeping a certain distance between them, with the bud side facing down, and flatten and compact the surrounding soil. Maintain the surrounding temperature above 20℃, spray water regularly to keep it moist, and the seeds will germinate and grow in about 2-3 weeks.

4. Planting

When the seedlings grow stably and reach 5-10 cm in length, they can be transplanted. They can be transplanted with soil to increase the probability of survival.
