• Sowing:

  • When to Sow: After stratification, sow the seeds in early spring.
  • Sow Depth: Use a well-draining seed-starting mix and press the seeds lightly into the soil without covering them completely, as they need light to germinate.
  • Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

• Germination:

  • Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature of 65-75°F (18-24°C).
  • Germination Time: Germination typically takes 2-4 weeks.
  • Place the seed trays in a bright location with indirect sunlight.

• Transplanting:

  • When seedlings are large enough to handle and have developed a couple of sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots.
  • Harden off the seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 1-2 weeks.
  • Transplant Location: In late spring or early summer, transplant them to their permanent location, spacing them 15-20 feet apart.

Care and Maintenance:

• Water young trees regularly, especially during dry periods, until they are well established.
• Mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Pruning: Prune dead or damaged branches as needed.
• Protection: Protect young trees from strong winds and extreme weather conditions.
