Has anybody tried growing a Kentucky Coffee Tree from a seed?
Question:any advice or tips?
Answers:
Only female trees produce seed pods. You should collect the seed pods when they fall from the tree. Remove the rock hard seeds from the pod. The outer seed shell must be scarified before they can germinate. Use sand paper or soak for 4 hours in a concentrated sulfuric acid bath. Once you have scarified the outer shell, rinse the seeds and plant. The rock hard seeds can be stored almost indefinitely before they are scarified.
