Where do banana seeds come from?

Bananas will contain a large number of banana seeds during their growth process. Basically, the bananas on the market do not have these seeds. The banana varieties that we often eat now have few seeds or no seeds. Banana seeds are oval in shape, slightly hard in texture, brown in color, and have a very hard skin.

Banana seed dispersal

Currently all bananas are hybrids and are triploid. Triploid bananas cannot produce seeds due to disordered chromosome pairing.

How to get banana seeds

Wild bananas are generally distributed in the south and mature in August. If you break open a wild banana, the seeds inside will be exposed and can be harvested in time.

How to save banana seeds

Since bananas reproduce asexually and without the natural spread of seeds, they can only be cultivated artificially. Therefore, there are three ways to preserve banana seeds: one is tuber reproduction, which is to reproduce by cutting the open rhizomes of bananas.

Banana Seed Planting

Bananas are suitable for planting in spring from mid-March to early April. At this time, the temperature rises and the humidity in the air is relatively high, so they can resume growth quickly if planted.

You can take out the banana seeds, soak them and sow them in loose soil, water them in time, and control the ambient temperature at around 15 degrees. The seeds will germinate in about 15 days.
