Did you know that you can grow cherries at home for free from fruit waste? In summer, cherries are nature’s true sweets and are loved by adults and children alike. But growing a tree is a different story. But many don’t know that you can grow it from seed to fruit, let’s see how to do it.
Do you want to grow cherry trees in your home but think it’s completely impossible? Here is the solution you have been looking for, the quick and easy tutorial to get you started until you can get it connected.
First, let’s take very ripe cherries that reach the typical dark red color. If this were not the case, we risk taking cherries whose pits have not yet formed. Now let’s take our core and leave it in the air (about 5/7) and let it dry for a whole night (even if you want to expose it to the sun).
Now we need to break open the pit using pliers and a hammer. In this way we remove the outer shell to take out the inner core that will be used for rooting. After removing the almonds, prepare a plastic bowl with a lid and also take a sheet of absorbent paper from which we take two large, equal portions.
We place one of the two at the bottom and moisten it with a spray mister filled with water. Now we put the nuts in and then cover them again with another sheet of absorbent paper and moisten them again with more water. Now we put the tray in the fridge. The first shoots appear after about 10 days. We will carefully uncover them and see that the sprouts begin to sprout.
Now let’s take a pot with some soil and put soft, well-drained soil in it (a mixture of universal soil and perlite). Make a small depression in the center about 1 cm deep and place the seed in it. We place the new root at the bottom of the glass. We then fill it back up with some soil and place it in the shade.
It will take some time, but with calm and patience, sooner or later we too will be able to see our cherry tree take root at home. It will grow strong and lush and we will have received it completely free!
