To break dormancy and speed up the sprouting process, carefully use a piece of fine sandpaper or a small hobby file to lightly scarify the flat side of the seed coat (taking care not to damage or pierce the soft inner white embryo). Soak the scarified seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting. Sow them 1\/2 inch deep in a warm, loose, well-draining seed-starting mix. Keep the medium consistently damp and warm (around 80°F \/ 27°C)—your sturdy green sprouts will emerge securely in 2 to 4 weeks!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Betri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48414977360113,"sku":null,"price":134.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/4476\/0049\/files\/a_a79b1630-1c01-48d6-8831-9deda1cda760.webp?v=1784158003","url":"https:\/\/sejahteraseeds.com\/products\/manila-sapodilla-seeds-manilkara-zapota-35-premium-rare-sweet-sawo-manila-chikoo-seeds","provider":"Sejahtera Seeds and Bulbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
