A pomegranate seed spit out 2 years ago actually grew into a tree that flowered and bore fruit

Lately, many gardening friends' succulents have turned to mush, leaving only a lonely little flower pot, and they don't know what to plant. Right now is the season when all kinds of fruits hit the market, so why not collect some fruit seeds and grow potted plants? Start from seed and witness the growth history of fruit~

Grow pomegranate: flowers and fruit in 2 years

It's pomegranate season right now. Eat the pomegranates we bought, remove the outer flesh (don't bite through the seeds), and keep the white seeds inside.

Evenly scatter the pomegranate seeds in a flower pot, cover with about 1cm of soil, water thoroughly, and in three to four weeks cute little seedlings will sprout!

When the seedlings gradually grow, we can also separate the pomegranate seedlings and plant them individually in flower pots. Look at the pomegranate sown by a gardening friend: it bore fruit in two and a half years~

Grow dragon fruit: an adorable succulent potted plant

Take out the flesh of the dragon fruit and put it in water. Mash and rub it in various ways to separate the flesh from the seeds; during this you can filter with gauze, then dry the seeds and we can sow them!

When the dragon fruit seedlings grow too big for the pot, we can also divide and repot them, tying them with hemp rope, and in 3~4 years we can harvest a full crop of fruit.

If we want fruit faster, we can also take cuttings. It's said that in 1 year we can eat dragon fruit, white-fleshed or red-fleshed; just thinking about it makes Huahua excited!

Grow durian: crack the shell and it grows into a small potted plant

Durian seeds have a thick outer shell. Before planting, we need to soak the seeds first. Just wash the seeds and throw them in water; after about two days the yellow-white radicle pokes out, and then they can be planted in soil!

Note that the white radicle should face the soil. It's fine if the seed shell is exposed above the soil surface, but be sure not to plant it upside down~

Although we can't grow a towering tree at home, durian grown from seed is quite suitable for bonsai. Gardening friends who like old trunks can also give it an artistic shape.

Grow lemon: a small emerald-green sapling

When planting lemon, you also need to soak the seeds first. After two days, use small tools like tweezers to remove the thin film wrapped around the outside of the seeds, then plant them directly in the soil.

If you want to increase the seed germination rate, after removing the film you can pre-sprout them: put the seeds in moist paper towels or a towel, and sow them after the seeds show white.

When the plant grows bigger, we can divide and transplant the seedlings, but generally lemon seedlings grown from seed rarely flower and bear fruit, and the wait is very long.

If you want to quickly get a plant that can produce fruit, we can use cuttings and grafting to speed up the process.

The fruit pits left over after eating

can all be thrown into a flower pot

and in a week they'll grow into a small emerald-green potted plant

Gardening friends who want to grow them should act quickly~
