How to plant grapefruit seeds

How to plant grapefruit seeds

1. Collect seeds

If you want to grow grapefruit, you must first collect the grapefruit seeds. Only the large and plump seeds need to be kept. Some small and shriveled seeds are best not used.

2. Soak in water

Tear off the husk but do not damage the seeds. If this step is omitted, it will be difficult to germinate. Then soak the seeds in clean water for 5-7 days. During this period, change the water every day to prevent the water from having odor.

3. Prepare the soil

Prepare some loose soil and put it into the flowerpot. You can mix some pebbles to make it more breathable. You can buy it directly at the flower market, or you can mix it with leaf mold, pine needles and garden soil, as long as it is breathable enough.

4. Planting

Just insert the processed seeds into the substrate one by one, and finally cover them with a layer of pebbles to make them more beautiful. Be careful to keep the small head of the seed facing upwards, spray some water on it and place it in a place with scattered light. If the temperature is relatively low, you can cover it with a layer of film.
