Growing your own sweetsop tree, also known as sugar apple, from seed can be a truly rewarding experience. While it requires some patience and care, it’s not as difficult as it may seem. Here’s a detailed guide to help you get started:
1. Seed Preparation
To begin, it’s important to use fresh seeds for better germination. Dry or older seeds may not sprout as well.

2. Germination Process
- Plant the seeds horizontally, about 2-3 cm deep, in a quality seed mix. Germination usually takes around 30 days, but it can be slow due to the tough seed coating.
- You can speed up germination by scarifying the seeds. Simply lightly scratch the seed coat with sandpaper to allow moisture and air to penetrate more easily.
- Using a soilless germination mix can help protect the seeds from disease and ensure proper growth.
3. Post-Germination Care
