Then soak them in warm water every morning and evening to keep the seeds moist. When they start to sprout, they can be sown.

The cultivation soil is suitable for plain sand. When sowing, put the top of wine bottle coconut seeds upward, and then put them on the seedbed obliquely. The thickness of the covering soil is about twice the diameter of the seed. After sowing, it needs to be placed in a room with a room temperature of about 25-30 ℃ and semi shaded to keep the soil moist< span>
