It is very popular because of its high nutritional value and its ability to activate brain cells. Can the seeds of Sakyamuni (Annona) be eaten? Can I grow potted plants? How do you plant it? Which areas are suitable for planting? How many years does it take to grow fruit?

Seeds cannot be eaten, but they can be planted. The specific planting methods are as follows:

1. Wash the seeds and soak them in water, then submerge the seeds with water. Soak in water every day for 6-8 days until no impurities are seen.

2. Choose a basin-free vessel of appropriate size (or seal the hole at the bottom of the basin), put it into the culture soil full of nine percent, and spray some water on the surface to make the surface soil moist.

3. When planting, the bud point of the seed is facing down, and it is arranged neatly from the outer circle of the basin to the center. Sakya seeds have a smooth surface and are not easy to pick, so it takes a little patience.

4. Then use wheat rice stone or other small pebbles to spread a thin layer on the surface. Spray the pot back and forth a few times to make the soil and seeds completely moist. And then it's waiting to sprout. Remember to spray water once a day.

5. About three weeks later, the seeds broke through the ground and grew into seedlings.

Sowing time:

In the areas with high winter temperature, it is better for Sakya fruit to dry and sow after seed harvest from August to September, the germination rate of fresh seeds is higher, and the growing period of seedlings is long, which is beneficial to the cultivation of strong seedlings. In order to cultivate strong seedlings, the seeds can be soaked with 200 mg / kg gibberellin for 24 hours before sowing, and the seedlings can emerge 3 days ahead of schedule. Spraying 6 leaves of seedlings with 5000kg 6000 times foliar spraying can effectively improve the rate of strong seedlings. As Sakyamuni seedlings are sensitive to frost, autumn sowing seedlings should pay special attention to cold prevention and heat preservation. It is best to sow seeds in spring in other south subtropical regions. Generally, the local low temperature, overcast and rainy weather has passed, and it is better to sow seeds after sunny and warm.

Sowing method:

The stored Sakya fruit seeds should be dried before sowing in order to promote germination. The nursery should choose sandy loam with good sunny drainage and fertile sandy loam, and the gentle slope flat land is the best. Before sowing, the nursery should turn the ground deeply for 1-2 months, then use rotten organic fertilizer and a small amount of lime as base fertilizer, break and mix well, and then repair the ditch. Strip sowing or sowing can be done, with seeds of 7 to 8 kilograms per mu. Cover with river sand or fine soil, slightly compacted and drenched with water to cover grass or plastic film, nursery bed pay attention to moisturizing, but also afraid of stagnant water, so we should also pay attention to prevent too much water, so as not to cause root rot. After germination, uncover the grass or plastic film to avoid bending the seedlings.

Areas suitable for planting:

Sakyamuni, also known as Annona, is native to tropical America. Cultivated in Hainan, Fujian, Taiwan, Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan.

How many years do you want to bear fruit?

The seedlings of Sakyamuni fruit usually begin to bear fruit 2-3 years after planting. The flowering period is from May to June and the fruiting period is from June to November. In addition, Sakya is a crop that can be harvested twice a year, that is, it can be harvested twice a year. After careful fertilization, pruning and passing flowers according to the season, the large and sweet fruit is obtained and picked at the right time when Sakya is ripe. In order to fully grasp the aroma and sweetness of Sakya.
