Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours to soften the outer shell.

Optionally, lightly scarify the seed coat with sandpaper to aid in germination.

Sowing:

Plant seeds in individual pots or directly in the ground, 1/4 inch deep.

Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged during germination.

Germination:

Germination typically occurs within 2-4 weeks under optimal conditions of warmth (around 70-80°F) and humidity.

Provide indirect sunlight until seedlings are established.

Transplanting:

When seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger containers or outdoor locations.

Ensure proper spacing if planting multiple trees, as mature Moreton Bay Fig trees require ample space to spread.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to maintain soil moisture.

Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring and mid-summer to promote healthy growth.

Prune as needed to shape the tree and remove dead or damaged branches.

Protect young trees from strong winds and frost until they are well-established.

By following these planting instructions and providing proper care, you can successfully grow Moreton Bay Fig Trees from seeds both indoors and outdoors.
