Save Your Seeds!

Gather and Save Your Seeds!

Practically everything I have planted in my yard is from a seed; either from a piece of fruit or a vegetable I have eaten, a cutting a friend has given me, or found on the ground. You actually can live off the land with time and patience!

Planting Your Seeds

Let's Lychee!

 

Growing lychee trees can be a rewarding experience as they produce delicious, sweet, and exotic fruits. Place seeds in a plastic baggy in a dark place. They will soon begin to sprout and you can transfer to some rich soil. Here are some general guidelines on how to grow lychee trees:


  1. Climate: Lychee trees thrive in a subtropical to tropical climate. They prefer warm, humid conditions with temperatures ranging between 70°F to 90°F (21°C to 32°C). Temperatures below 32°F (0°C) can damage the tree.
  2. Location: Choose a sunny spot with good air circulation. Lychee trees need at least 6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily.
  3. Soil: Lychee trees prefer well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5 to 7.5). If your soil is clay-heavy or compacted, consider adding organic matter to improve drainage.
  4. Watering: Lychee trees have shallow root systems, so they require consistent watering. Keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogged conditions. During the growing season, water the tree more frequently, and reduce watering during the dormant period.
  5. Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the tree to conserve moisture and suppress weed growth. Mulch also helps regulate soil temperature.
  6. Fertilization: Lychee trees benefit from regular fertilization. Use a balanced fertilizer with a higher potassium content to promote fruiting. Apply the fertilizer in spring and early summer.
  7. Pruning: Prune the tree to remove any dead, damaged, or overcrowded branches. This will improve air circulation and sunlight penetration, leading to better fruit production.
  8. Pest and Disease Control: Keep an eye out for common pests like aphids, mites, and scale insects. Regularly inspect your tree and use appropriate insecticides or organic remedies if needed. Additionally, ensure good sanitation practices to prevent disease spread.
  9. Pollination: Some lychee varieties may need cross-pollination for a better fruit set. If you have space, consider planting multiple trees or find out if your specific variety is self-pollinating.
  10. Harvesting: Lychee fruits are ready to be harvested when their skin turns bright red or pink. Pick the fruit carefully to avoid damaging it. The fruit is best eaten fresh, but you can also store it in the refrigerator for a few days.


It's essential to note that lychee trees may take several years to reach maturity and produce significant fruit yields. Patience and consistent care are crucial for successful lychee tree cultivation. Additionally, if you live in a region with colder winters, consider planting lychee trees in containers that can be moved indoors during the colder months.
