I germinated some. Did take a while and I nearly gave up and threw it away, but forgot to and then jus a few days ago, I saw it sprouting, was so excited!!! One has true leaves comming through now. 🙂
Don’t give up always check on them first I be trying to grow a lot of stuff and sometimes it takes longer .. the same seed or time of plant won’t always sprout at the same time
You have no idea how you saved me today, my father asked me to do this "grow star fruit seeds" and I was confused, but this beautiful done video has just solved my problem and I'm doing mine in a pot...Ya - Hoo ☺ _From Accra, Greeter Accra, Ghana. Thanks cheers!
Suggestion for you: Next time you do this, cut the fruit lengthwise and along the bottom of the "V"s. Separate the segments that way and you'll see the seeds come out in their natural "pouches" and undamaged.
To get more usable seeds from each fruit, instead of cutting like shown in video, cut the star fruit lengthwise along the star points maintaining the core. Once the core is separated gently dig the seeds out with your fingers.
The best way is to cut the Starfruit almost half way down (Not all the way down) and then turn it all the way around with your knife still in it and then pull it apart and take out the seeds. You won’t cut any seeds
I used your method to grow star fruit plant. DAMN thankyou. 2 of the seeds germinated well. I'm hoping for the rest to come up too. THANKYOU FOR THIS. I hope they grow well.
This was a very helpful video. l learned how to carefully extract and plant my seeds,not too deep. I also learned what they look like once they emerged,and I learned they are sensitive to touch/movement. I really enjoyed this video,and the selection of music was perfect.😁🤗🤗 Thank you for sharing🌹
AWESOME! Thanks for sharing your tutorial on how to grow a Starfruit tree, somebody commented Starfruits are vines, could it be there are different species of starfruit? About a month ago I bought a starfruit, and to my bad luck, the fruit only had 1 seed, but guess what, lady luck shined forth and that one seed has sprouted, it looks identical to yours and I haven't touched it yet, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to transplant it to a bigger pot, its currently in a yoghurt cup container. Thumbs up and greetings from Mexico. :)
a good soil is coco peat for them and you should put them in damp paper towels at first then once they sprout put them in soil. It worked for me this way.
I wonder if this will work with seeds you get from green ones. I bought one about a week back, ate it today, salvaged a few seeds from it. They feel somewhat hard, i hope they're ready.
I planted few seeds , 4 sprouted quickly but the problem is the outer skin was still attached when they sprouted so prevented the seedling growing ! I carefully used a tweezer to remove the outer skin . What did I do wrong ???? Reply will be appreciated as I want to help others to grow that have sprouted with same problem . Thanks
I just used MiracleGro potting mix. Just put it in a lidded container with a breathing hole on top so it can hold just the right amount of humidity in. If you're in the colder zones, give em a while since it's the winter months. I used a plastic container grocery stores sell cookies in
The seeds are in a string bean like membrane that pulls away from the fruit. If you pull it apart lengthwise with your hand you can squeeze them put with no damage.
I don't think it'll give fruits indoors, I had my plant from seed to a big plant for more than a year or two. It didn't flower, just grew into a long stem with leaves like curry leaves. It makes mess as it sheds leaves alot. I see no fruits at all. It had to be in the ground and in full sun to grow good and give fruits.
I think it's fine to plant them directly in soil since they germinate easily and quite fast! I usually use the paper towel method with seeds that are particularly sensitive and harder to germinate. However, both methods have pros and cons. Good luck with your plants!
Hey question: once the seed germinates and the stem poles out of the soil, what is the general amount of time from seeing the sprout to planting it in the yard? I see google says “10-14 months after planting” but does that mean “10-14 months after planting it from seed”, or “10-14 month after planting it in the yard”?
it doesn't matter. that said, you want to make sure there is sufficient moisture or rainfall to ensure survival. you can direct plant the seeds at the beginning of the rainy season, for example. which zone are you, and what is your annual rainfall? @@johail3510
Giordana Lucas from what I have read online the seeds do not remain viable for long, and it is advised you plant them A.S.A.P., waiting now more than a few days, and they should look a glossy brown. My guess is your seeds are dead and you need to get new ones. Unfortunately, this will include the torturous exercise of eating the fruit lol
@@Wordlesschaos haha what a pain to eat carambola!😂 Well, i have in soil already so might as well just leave them there for a few weeks but will be getting new ones soon the. Thanks for the info and reply.😉
when it starts to flower, which can be very fast. I had one covered in flowers a few months after growing it from a graft quickly. ease of fruiting at a small size depends on the variety
Question: do I start my seeds in full shade, or dappled light, or full sun? I've read to start them in full shade. Then, at what point to I put them in the sun? And, do I very slowly acclimate them, such as putting them in dappled light first, then slowly increase the amount of sunlight? Mine are now about 2" out of the ground, but they seem to have stalled. not sure what to do now
Joshua McHarg It needs it. I germinated mine in a shallow dish with a little soil and gravel and it sent out one long root from the stem. When i transplanted it i had to burry it deeper to cover up the white stem/ root.
