How to grow persimmons from seed ( 0 to 120 days)

Store bought persimmons and relatively easy to grows
From seeds to 2 feet tall seedlings just in 4 months , happy gardening!

How many year the persimon tree from seed to have fruits ?

[@TonysExploration]

I still expecting n experiment on this.

[@harxmoond]

3-5 yrs

[@tirramasu7948]

​@@harxmoondIf grafted If from a seed half a decade at least

[@faizanshamsi7739]

I ate many this fruit but not found seed in it

[@TonysExploration]

True, nowadays the variety no longer has seeds, especially from China.Try to search for other countries like Spain or Korea.

[@onLYbyM]

Yes. The ones we have in the middle east are also seedless. We buy them in the exotic fruits section. They are called Kaka.

[@julialuyt990]

I found the smaller younger ones didn't have seeds and the bigger ones had seeds. They were all in one punnet so I guess it came from the same grower. I'm going to plant mine and see what happens...

[@sonyas.5639]

​@TonysExploration lucky me! I found 7 seeds from one fruit that I bought from friends 😅😅 that's why I'm here looking on how to plant it from seeds 😊 Thank you so much for the video! 🙏🙏 and lucky you because you live in tropical climate!

Interesting I have persimmon trees in my yard on a property I purchased along with five mature pecans. I mean all of these trees are well over 60 years old and the persimmons that come off of these trees are smaller than what appeared in the video but they still had four seeds one so I’ve got about 35 or 40 seeds right now and I’m going to pop them all and see what I can get started And they good they’ll be Christmas gifts to friends and neighbors who loved them along with some pecan seedlings. Two of my trees have really big pecans. They’re like three times the size of a normal one and then the other three are normal pecans and I typically get approximately 40 gallons worth of pecan seeds in a season, and that’s what the tree rats for me lol they start tearing into before the husk is even starting to turn brown. They cut them off and start chewing through the green husk and realize it’s better and spit it out and drop it the two hurricanes this year backed back, also blew a lot of the immature pecans off the trees so I look for my pecan production this year to be significantly less, but I’m hoping to get the germinated to thanks for the video

[@Lafayettelyle]

that looks too good to be true. i can't even germinate wild persimmon for root stock in the same year.

Thank you for the tip, can u tell me why my persimmon plant doesnt grow after a month it has grown 10cm two mini leafs and wont go up or die what am i doing wrong here, thank you

When did you transfer the four trees to one and how deep of pot did you use? Did you eventually plant in ground? This is two years later, how is the plant today? I have several pots of 6 trees and want to keep them all until I put them in the ground this fall. I cannot find information on how and if I can transplant them to bigger pots while I harden them off and prepare to plant them. Thank you in advance for an answer.

[@TonysExploration]

I have limited space , so I planted a 20 gallon pot right after this video taken and guess what is flowering for this first time this season. Given is a tree, you must plant to the ground, that is the best way to grow persimmon. I wish youtube allow reply in picture, else I can snap picture to show you

After how many months can one put them in the ground.If not put in the ground then how to store in the winter ? Thanks

When around 1 feet tall, then straight to ground. It will survive winter, so no worries

I have a 2 years old seed grown sapling but it is not thick enough to graft yet, it's slightly thicker than a toothpick and the height is about 6 inches, what can I do to thicken the sapling so it would be suitable to be grafted?

[@TonysExploration]

The growth rate very much depend on two things ..the nutrient and of course temperature. If the temperature is correct, then make sure the soil pH is correct , so all the nutrients can be absorbed properly . The rest is just waiting for the plant to grow

[@BaZiGaR-YT]

In which months we can germinate seeds

[@NationContra]

All year round

[@jmarrero1124]

The persimmons I have found don't have seeds. Whats the name if this one?

[@TonysExploration]

I know, I have seen some variety bigger size, normally don't have seed, look for the smaller size

[@katekuang8263]

I’ve found a seed here and there (3) from pounds of Fuyu persimmon my kiddo gorged on 2 winters ago - all 3 germinated around a month+ stuck in diff pots in peat moss on a heating pad (cold stratified then peat moss). But i accidentally broke each one. This past winter i found 2 more seeds but smaller, didn’t think they were viable but stuck them into random pot anyways, I now have 2 that are just sprouting that I had apparently stuck into my Michelia Alba pot outside back Dec/Jan and forgotten, got a surprise find yesterday when I was air-layering a couple of branches on my Michelia Alba. 🤩🕺Gonna put a clear plastic cup over each to prevent accidentally snapping them this time around….

[@onLYbyM]

Same here. The ones we buy fresh at the super market (exotic fruits) are seedless. We call them Kaka fruit.

[@lifeofintention4711]

Hello Tony, thanks for your video. I tried growing last season from seeds and all came up, however, these were planted in premium potting mix. I found that they had leaves that curled down and did not grow quickly. They seemed stunted and after 1 year, they are still only 10cm tall. I have now re-potted them into different soil and noticed that the stems were quite deep. Can this be part of an issue?

[@TonysExploration]

Peaceful curl means something wrong, the first step I would check is soil pH and drainage

[@lifeofintention4711]

@@TonysExploration Thank you, think drainage has been the hardest due to the potting mix composting down to thick sticky soil... think it is stopping air and holding moisture too long, but hard to tell. I've swapped the potting mix now in most of the seedlings and will see if it improves, but going into it winter it may go dormant and not grow much. Thanks again.

[@TonysExploration]

@@lifeofintention4711 I often add in lots of perlite to the potting mix. Even the pre-pack premium potting mix, I found that the ratio of perlite still not enough for good drainage. The way I approach gardening is always 1) good drainage ( do it right at the first step, repotting always stress the plant) 2) correct pH . Once these two are in ideal condition, the rest is just fertilizer and pest control.

[@lifeofintention4711]

@@TonysExploration That's good to know, much appreciated 👍

[@ShortStoryRelaxation]

Thanks for the video. Once in their own pots, did you do any pruning to encourage a bushier plant?

[@TonysExploration]

Yes, highly recommended. Eventually you need to plant this on the ground. 20 gallon pot is only for the first year. It will grow up to be a tree.

Can

I had a few seeds sprout, but the seed attached to the top look to have broken off really early. Will these sprouts still grow? Or is it a goner?

Depend if you completely snap off the first true leaves....then is goner

When did u put them in there own potts?

Did you jump over refrigerator stratification? This need about 100 days of cold before they start to germinate.

[@TonysExploration]

No, I didn't do that..straight in .only grape seed I did the stratification

[@lifeofintention4711]

@@TonysExploration As this is the non astringent type, I don't think they require stratification as they are a warmer climate variety (correct me if I am wrong).

My seeds sprouted, but I remove the seed covers from the developing plant I can't wait more. It took more than 2 months. Now I am worried

As long as the center is not hurt or damaged when u removed the seed covers , it will grow new leaves soon ...don't worry

Is their a possibility they can grow amd thrive in a tropical environment?

I manage to bring it to flower in the third year , so technically I think is possible

I bought persimmons I cut it and it had NO seds. WHY did this happen?

[@TonysExploration]

Nowadays , more and more persimmons are parthenocarpy variety, just like grapes and bananas. You need to source around different supplier or different variety

[@jasmineec2]

Hello! I’m growing black sapote & found that they are in the persimmon family. I have two sets of leaves on my seedlings, but the first set of leaves are starting to curl on the sides. Do you think that’s because of underwatering? I don’t want to water too much on accident

[@TonysExploration]

Is very hard to tell without seeing the actual plant. Curl is a sign of stress, but the rootcause can be many...the pH ,the soil ,pest.. just keep an eye on another set of seedlings

It grows from seeds because I have tried it. Waiting to grow more like a tree.
