1.Prepare the Seed: Wash the seed and insert toothpicks around its equator. These will hold the seed above the water.
2.Suspend the Seed: Place the seed over a glass or jar filled with water, making sure the bottom half is submerged.
3.Change the Water: Check and change the water regularly to keep it fresh.
4.Wait for Germination: Place the setup in a sunny location and wait for the roots to emerge, which usually occurs between two and six weeks.
5.Transplant: Once roots and a stem with leaves appear, transplant the seed into well-drained soil, leaving the top half exposed.
6.Caring for your Tree: Water regularly and place in a sunny location. Prune occasionally to encourage growth.
