Growing Tips for Jujube Seeds:

1. Planting: Start seeds indoors in early spring. Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination rates. Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist and warm (70-85°F) until germination, which may take several weeks.
2. Soil: Prefers well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a pH of 5.5-7.5. Jujube trees are tolerant of poor soils but thrive in nutrient-rich conditions.
3. Watering: Water regularly during the first year to establish roots, then reduce watering once the tree is established. Jujube trees are drought-tolerant but will benefit from occasional deep watering during dry spells.
4. Sunlight: Requires full sun for optimal growth and fruit production. Ensure the tree receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
5. Maintenance: Minimal maintenance required. Prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing branches and shape the tree. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
6. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced fertilizer or compost in early spring and mid-summer to promote healthy growth and fruiting.
