Today I'll be taking you through the whole process of how I grew fruit trees from store bought fruit, including growing some from seed to harvest. I share updates along the way to show you what happened with each type of fruit tree. We'll also go over some growing requirements to help you get started with learning how to grow different plants, vines and trees in your garden.
I've selected 7 store-bought fruits to grow with each one suiting a slightly different climate, so you should find one in here that you can grow in your garden wherever you live in the world.
We'll be growing pomegranates from seeds to fruit, as well as growing goji berry plants (wolf berries), dragon fruit, peanuts, tamarillo, papaya and kiwifruit (kiwi).
Experimenting with this kind of thing gives you more that just a plant or fruit; it also helps you to learn skills of how to grow different trees from seed, care for plants with different requirements and it can lead to many other skills or passions down the track, like grafting, growing you own food and many other interests. At least it did for me!
I hope you find this guide helpful and it inspires you to get out there and grow something :)

Start a garden! I started by watching a few videos as well. 3 years ago I started with a couple tomato plants, which are very easy, and they produced a lot of fruit. Now this year i have 18 different plants/herbs! It's a very satisfying and healthy habit to get into, and so rewarding when you get to harvest at the end of summer/fall! I knew basically nothing about hardening, and just began researching online, and watching different gardeners on youtube and here I am with plants growing all around my house 😂

This remembers me time. My dad brought wolf berries packed from China. They were supposed to be eaten as they are useful for health problems especially for older people. We gave it to grandparents, but they didn't like it and threw it to the yard in winter. We went to visit them in summer and saw unusual plant in the yard. Asked grandpa and he was not sure and guessed some kinda wild plant. After a year or so bushes gave a fruit and it was a wolf berry. Found out later that the weather and environment in our area (Central Asia dry areas) is similar to where these berries grow. It was mind blowing for me back then.

I had a roommate that would throw compostable waste onto the small dirt patch outside our patio. She moved out this past May, and I started noticing some weeds that were growing. They sprouted some pretty yellow flowers and grew from the dirt through the fence of our patio and close to our back door. Eventually I noticed three small melons that were growing and I was so amazed! The rainy season was ending but I took to watering the plants everyday since, and I’ve already gotten to eat some sweet cantaloupe❤️ I’m new to this but I am a very happy plant mom, haha even though I became a mom by accident. I can’t wait to keep growing more. Your videos inspire me!

Yeah, well where I live, it's a 4-month growing period, so until electricity and grow houses, NOT our thing. We had small gardens for root vegetables and quick seasonal things like peas, leafy produce, and herbs... BUT, we learn to fish and hunt before we get to ride bikes. . When we are kids or to use a microwave if it's a city kid. The only fruits that grow here are mainly Apples because we can store them in a cold cellar for months.. Otherwise, it's seasonal wild berries. When I was a kid, we'd get oranges from Florida in the winter, those Morrocan clementines, and some grapes from the USA. But that was it until globalization and the first KIWI fruits got around with fast shipping. BUT I know which mushrooms I CAN eat (and not to touch ANY other ones), how to move and survive in the Boreal forest, and how to live with, and even work and play in arctic cold spells. I think we BOTH learned a lot and are LUCKY we did because 90% of my local society can't survive one week without a grocery store and processed food. Now let's just see which of us is going to become the most efficient survivor in this new climate change era. I think we'll probably need a MIX of both. But I am finding a CAVE to hide in for a few years... The word is gonna get CRAZIER before it gets any better..

i learned in orange county North Carolina that the orange clay soil is actually pretty rich & does wonderful for plants- even without or tending to them... 12 years ago I had a lot of seeds to try to do a project with my kids, and my then 5 year old found my corn, tomato and other seeds and decided to sprinkle them all over the yard and around my porch.. honest to God, the BEST yield of crops Ive ever seenn & did a garden for about 10 years with my gpa- who tilled the soil, fertilixed it, watered it morning and evening... come to find out 1: orange or clay soil is wonderful 2: you do more harm to your soils when you till them up, add a lot of stuff to them, etc.. The soil is great too when rich in CO2, add in natural earth worms if you wish in a controlled area.. this has been shown to be the best way to garden.. doing all the excess work in raised beds & adding chemicals or other items really not needed only make it harder on the crops. So, dont do much to the soil- barely open a spot just big enough for the plant, or seed, and leave it be- water when necessary.. its by far the best way i have ever seen

When I was a kid, my mother would leave squash seeds out to dry after scooping them out before cooking. One day I decided to take a few of them and go into my back yard and plant them myself. For several days after school I would go into our backyard ND water them. After a while, I was able to grow like 2 squashes. I was so proud.

But sadly a fly put its eggs into the soil and the maggots ate all the roots, I almost cried. But when I moved out, my parents kept the survivors (prickly pears) and my dad puts so much love into caring for them that they got really huge.

A friend told me it could be because the air humidity was too low. After changing to a bigger pot, placing it a little bit brighter and starting to mist the leaves with water every few days, they really started to thrive and I got lots of new leaves.

When my brother in law was a struggling newly wed working at a florist shop back in the 70s, he planted lemon and grapefruit seeds in clay pots and sold them as ornamental plants at the florist shop. No surprise, he is a successful business man now, probably worth a few million dollars. (Not from the plants, but from his other ventures)

Very informative. I'd like to share my grow from seeds experience. Strawberries. And some context here, I did "wild planting" pretty much as nature does it. The results exceeded expectations. What I did was quite simple. I had some store bought strawberries, with the intention of making pemmican. That didn't work out so well, but I still had a small handful of the seeds. So, I scattered them about a clearing close to my campsite. And pretty much let it be. Here's what happened: Next season, I noticed some new strawberry plants. No flowers, no fruits. Third season, more greenery and a few flowers. No fruit, maybe because the critters beat me to it. Fourth season was glorious. Great ground cover, plenty of flowers and later fruits. I had to share with the critters, of course, but that harvest was more than what I started out with. All said and done, the strawberry patch is still there and providing so I consider that a win/win for me and for Nature. Side note: The strawberries weren't as large as the store bought ones, but what they lacked in size they more than compensated with quantity. And in my mind, they tasted far better.

Nope, it aint. I can still go there and yeppers there will be strawberry plants. Still producin strawberries. Not the big grocery store kind, but I'm sure the critters don't complain. I've also planted legumes and gourds... to the same effect. The point being, you let nature does what it does.

We harvested pomegranates this year from our seed grown plants. So exciting- and delicious! An added benefit is that our garden is in a very hot, drought prone area and the pomegranates seem to like that . Thanks for the encouragement to try other seeds- dragonfruit next!

Well, I got bad news for you, pal. You won't have fun eating your home-grown apples ever. Apple messes up the genetics between male and female, so they almost never produce edible apples. I guess it was about 1:16000 with apples, not much better with lemons. But there is a way to grow lemons from seeds. You would need bittet orange three and a citrus (Citrus medica) one.

I feel your pain! -40 is not uncommon in my part of western Siberia. That being said, in my small flat I have small citrus, pomegranate, bay, and avocado trees. They need a bit of help from grow lamps over the winter, but they do fine. Not expecting fruit, but they are attractive foliage plants. Plus the long days in the summer gets me great chilli harvests on the balcony (provided I start them early enough).

One pro tip when starting seed I learned over the years and that works wonders: soak the seed overnight in chamomile tee (organic just to make sure there are no chemicals). I almost never have seeds not sprouting even with difficult plants where others report a 50% rate of failure.
