- Soil requirements: Prunus cherry seeds prefer well-drained, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun to partial shade. Ideally, they should receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering requirements: Cherry seeds need regular watering, especially during dry periods. The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply once a week, ensuring the soil is moist to a depth of 6-8 inches.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Prunus cherry seeds is in the fall or early spring. This allows the seeds to undergo natural stratification during the winter months.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1-2 inches deep in the soil. Space the seeds approximately 20-30 feet apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
- Germination time: Cherry seeds typically take 90-150 days to germinate. Stratification, or cold treatment, is often required to break seed dormancy and promote germination.
- Maturity time: Prunus cherry trees generally take 3-5 years to reach maturity and start producing fruit after planting the seeds.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest cherries is in the early morning when the fruit is cool and firm. This helps to preserve the fruit's quality and flavor.
- Harvesting tips: Use clean, sharp pruning shears to cut the fruit stems, leaving a small portion of the stem attached to the fruit. Handle the cherries gently to avoid bruising. Store the harvested cherries in a cool, dry place or refrigerate them to extend their shelf life.
