Product Description

The custard apple seeds are very hard, so they require some preparation before sowing. The success of growing custard apple from seeds depends greatly on proper seed preparation before sowing as the seeds are very hard. The seed is prepared by soaking in water. Soak the seeds in water in a cup at room temperature for 4 days. Sowing The Seeds Take a small pot and fill it with a well-draining soil. You can either use a seed raising soil or make your own. Sow the seeds about 1 inch deep keeping about 2 inch separation between them. I mixed potting mix with river sand in equal amount and filled the pot, leaving top 1 inches empty. I placed the 4 seeds on the soil and fill the pot with the soil. Water well and place the pot in indirect sunlight. Keep the soil damp as the seeds germination require humid and warm environment. The custard apple seeds germinate quickly (about 3 weeks) in temperatures between 18 and 25°C (64 and 77°F). However, in the varying climate of Sydney, my seeds took almost 8 weeks when 2 out of 4 seeds germinated. Keep the soil damp by giving water to the developing root system daily. When the seedlings grow to a height of 3-4 inch, it is time to transplant them. Soil For Custard Apple Sandy loam soil is the best for custard apples, so dig the ground about 1 meter deep and add ample river sand and compost in it to ensure good tree growth. Soil with rocks or too much clay will cause the root rot. Avoid soils that have previously grown ginger, eggplant, capsicums, tomatoes and potatoes to avoid bacterial wilt disease. Transplanting the Seedlings Tap the pot from all side to make the soil lose and take out the saplings carefully without damaging the roots. Plant the saplings in a small pot filled with well-draining soil. Make the soil by adding river sand (25%) and compost (25%) in potting mix (50%). Place the planted pot in indirect sunlight for at least 4 weeks, or until the root system is strong enough to transplant the tree to its permanent position. If growing in a pot, do not plant the sapling in a very large pot. Start with a small pot and transfer to the next pot size when the roots start to emerge from the bottom holes of the pot. This way the plant will be always in a fresh soil getting the needed nutrients. Always put the pots in a warm position protected from winds. Planting Custard Apple Plant in Ground Select the warmest frost-free side of the garden which is most protected from winds. This will protect the soft brittle wood of the tree which is extremely susceptible to wind damage. If you want to grow custard apple in ground, dig the soil to 1 m depth and break any heavy clay and chunk of soil. Add river sand and compost to avoid root rot; and transfer the plant. 3 seeds
