How to save kiwi seeds

Kiwifruit seeds

When the kiwi fruit is ripe, it can be harvested in time. Squeeze out the fruit together with the seeds, and then put them all into a gauze bag and rub them to separate the fruit and seeds. Then wash them repeatedly with clean water and place the washed seeds in a well-ventilated place indoors to dry in the shade.

Kiwi seed storage

Kiwi is a fruit that is very resistant to storage. Its seeds can be stored for at least one year. They need to be kept in a dry, low-temperature, and sealed place. It is best to sow them as soon as possible so that the germination rate will be higher.

Kiwifruit seed planting

Kiwi fruit is suitable for sowing in spring, specifically from March to April. The temperature and humidity at this time are suitable, the survival rate of sowing is higher, and the plants can grow faster.

1. Choose a place with deep and fertile soil and good drainage and transportation conditions, renovate the soil in advance, apply sufficient base fertilizer, and remove weeds.

2. Kiwi seeds need to be soaked in 40-50 degree warm water for 2 hours in advance, then soaked in cold water for a day and night, and then stored in sand for 2 months. After that, they can be sown in loose soil with a depth of 2-3 cm, covered with a thin layer of fine river sand and covered with straw, and watered thoroughly once.

3. You can usually place it in a sunny place for maintenance. It will sprout soon. When it grows to about 50 cm, pinch it off to allow it to grow thicker, and then you can transplant it.
