Some plant lovers might say, well, planting corn also turns a seed into a plant! What is so special about that~

The expert grower we are going to talk about next does not turn ordinary seeds into potted plants, but turns the "fruit pits" from daily life into potted plants. Take the commonly eaten pomelo, for example. Have you ever seen pomelo seeds grown into a potted plant?

The picture above shows a potted plant grown from pomelo seeds. By the way, turning seeds from daily life into potted plants is full of fun, and I believe that after reading this article, most plant lovers will want to give it a try. Although most fruit pits can be grown into potted plants, there is still a lot of technique and knowledge involved. Taking pomelo as an example, let us briefly share how an expert grower turns seeds into a potted plant step by step.

First, when eating a pomelo, peel off the pomelo seeds. Be careful to do it gently and do not damage the seeds. After removing them, soak them in a basin of water first, then select some good seeds. Discard the shriveled ones or those that are smaller in size, because such seeds are poorly nourished and have a very low germination rate.

After selecting them, prepare a pair of tweezers and remove the shells of the pomelo seeds. All seeds are wrapped in a shell, and pomelo is no exception. When peeling, be careful and peel gently.

Only pomelo seeds with the shell removed can germinate. Some plant lovers are too lazy to remove the shell, and obviously no matter how you grow pomelo seeds, they will not germinate and grow; over time the seeds will rot in the potting soil. After peeling, soak the pomelo seeds in water. There is a particular way to do this soaking. This is the early-stage seed soaking, which affects the germination rate. The soaking time is about 5 days to 7 days, and remember to change the water once a day. Place it in a cool and ventilated spot.

After soaking is complete, they can be planted in a flower pot. As for the soil in the pot, it is recommended that plant lovers prepare it themselves, and do not use those special flower soils sold in the flower market. It is best to dig some peat soil or leaf mold in the wild yourself, then mix in some pine needles and ordinary garden soil. This kind of soil is loose, breathable, and fertile, which is very good for rooting and sprouting.

When sowing the seeds, be sure to remember to point the small end of the pomelo seed upward.

After sowing the pomelo seeds, cover them with small stones or coarse sand. Be careful not to press the seeds too tightly, or you can also seal them with plastic wrap and poke a few small holes in it for ventilation. In this way, they can sprout after two or three days. Note that during this period, do not water too much; just spray a little water in the morning and evening each day. After the young sprouts grow out, they can be moved to a spot with scattered light. This can promote glossy green leaves and speed up growth.

With normal care, in about one month they will grow into a "little pomelo forest" like the picture above. This lush little potted plant can absolutely be grown as a foliage plant. In daily care, you can water it with rice-washing water or vegetable-washing water. When fertilizing other flowers and plants, you can also share a little with the pomelo potted plant, and it will surely grow lush and thriving. Placing it on a coffee table or desk is full of fun, after all, you grew it little by little from seeds yourself.

That is all for sharing the knowledge about growing pomelo seeds into a potted plant. Thank you for reading! You can save it first.
