Sowing and germination

Seeds are pre-soaked in warm water at 35-40 degrees for 2 days. Sowing is done in a container with a mixture for palm trees, a substrate based on peat and coconut, or a mixture of equal parts of sand, sawdust and moss. A thick drainage layer with pieces of charcoal is placed at the bottom of the sowing container. The sowing container is sealed. For high-quality germination, sowing must be provided with heat from 25 to 35 degrees and good lighting. Germination may take two to six months.
