Can the seeds of snake fruit be planted?

The seeds of snake apple can be planted. They are generally propagated by seeds. After picking the snake apple, peel off the skin, mix it with coarse sand to remove the pulp, and wash it to get the seeds. Fresh seeds completely lose their germination ability after being placed indoors for one month and need to be picked and sown. If they are not sown in time, they can be stored at low temperature with wet sand.

Delicious fruit seed planting time

It usually takes 2-3 years for the fruit grown from snake apple seeds to bear fruit. The first fruit will not be very high. After 3-4 years of planting, it will grow more mature and the fruit will be relatively stable.

Snake apples are usually cultivated around March in spring, and the best time to cultivate them is before summer. In summer, the temperature is high, and it is generally difficult for cultivated seedlings to survive. The same is true in winter, and it is difficult for them to survive at low temperatures. After cultivation, remember to take anti-freeze measures in winter to prevent frost damage to the seedlings.
