Germination Guide

  • If you want to speed up germination, lightly scarify the outer surface seeds with a metal nail file or similar - this helps the seed take on water and trigger germination
  • Soak the seeds in a cup of water for 24 hours.
  • Prepare some relatively deep seed containers (custard apples have long tap roots) with drainage holes  - supermarket plastic fruit punnets work well
  • Sterilise the containers and rinse
  • Prepare a light well draining compost mix  - ideally 50% sieved compost, 50% horticultural sand or vermiculite.
  • Place compost mix in plastic bowl and microwave on full power for 2 minutes. Allow to cool.
  • Sow the seeds 2cm deep 5cms apart and cover with compost mix
  • Loosely cover with plastic dome (vents open) and a plastic bag with holes in for ventilation
  • Keep at between 22-28 degrees C in a bright place but out of direct sunlight
  • Ensure compost kept moist but be very careful not to overwater as seeds will rot.
  • Remove cover occasionally to allow fresh air in. 
  • Seeds should germinate within 30 to 40 days depending on conditions. .
  • Gradually remove cover to acclimatise seedlings
