Sowing and harvesting period:
- Sowing: We recommend sowing in autumn for natural winter stratification, or in early spring after artificial seed stratification.
- Harvest: The fruits typically ripen in August.
- Optimal germination conditions: Seeds require a cold stratification (vernalization) period of at least 60-90 days at temperatures between 1-5°C before sowing to break dormancy. After stratification, the ideal germination temperature is 18-22°C.
- Soil type: Prefers fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic or neutral soil (pH 6.0-7.0). Avoid heavy clay or excessively calcareous soils.
- Recommended exposure: Full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day, essential for good fruit set and sweetness of the fruits.
- Germination times: Variable, generally 30 to 90 days after sowing, once stratification is complete.
- Pot or ground cultivation: Ideal for open ground to allow the tree to fully develop. In the early years, growing in large pots is possible, but will require repotting and greater attention.
- Quality Specifications: Non-GMO (not genetically modified) seeds, heirloom (ancient and traditional) varieties, selected to ensure high germination and varietal fidelity.
