Как вырастить свое собственное кофейное дерево из семян

The coffee tree (Coffea) is an evergreen tree belonging to the Rubiaceae family. The plant produces rich burgundy fruits with seeds. A slightly acidic clay soil with added organic matter is best for this plant. A commercial all-purpose potting mix can be used for planting. Alternatively, you can prepare your own soil by mixing peat, garden soil, and humus with river sand, using equal parts of all ingredients. A good drainage layer should be placed at the bottom of the container. This will help prevent water stagnation in the root system. In addition to the soil mixes described above, you can use store-bought azalea or gardenia soil for replanting coffee. If desired, a coffee tree can be grown from seed indoors. Only freshly collected seeds are suitable. The older the seed, the less likely it is to produce a seedling. Don't plant the seeds deep; instead, spread them out over the surface of the soil mixture. Otherwise, they may rot. Place the seeds flat on the surface of the soil. Next, water the seedlings with lukewarm water. Cover the container with glass or plastic. 25 degrees Celsius is the optimal temperature for seedling emergence. However, the first shoots may not appear until 6-8 weeks after sowing. Once the seedlings have developed several true leaves, they can be pricked out. The first fruiting of a bush grown from seed occurs in the third or fourth year of growth.    • Как вырастить свое собственное кофейное де...
