Only when I got too busy with life, forgetting on numerous occasions to take my grapefruit to work with me for my lunch break, was I able to successfully germinate my seeds. It seems the best way came about by complete mistake namely forgetfulness and neglect. I never even extracted the seeds from the fruit. So there they germinated. When finally I went to eat the grapefruit I found roots about ½ inch emerging from two of its seeds. Immediately I washed them off and prepared the soil medium for planting. With careful observance assuring the perfect conditions thereafter, I now have a young grapefruit tree!
I’ve had many attempts getting grapefruit seeds to germinate. I had even tried a number of different methods with no success - finding different reason for each failure. So now I am truly surprised and excited about this new growth.
If anyone has experience with grapefruit seeds I’d love feedback about your experience for the life of a healthy and prosperous tree.
