These seeds are fresh just off my tree. I have shucked the outer skin already and ready to plant. I hope you enjoy the video, it is very informative.
Pomelos can be either round or pear-shaped with white, pink or red flesh.
The largest variety of citrus, pomelo or pummelo (Citrus maxima) can produce 25-pound fruits up to 1 foot across in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 9 through 11. Usually, however, the fruits remain about the size of an extra-large grapefruit (Citrus x paradisi, USDA zones 9 through 11). Pomelo has sweeter flesh and a thicker rind.
A pomelo tree can reach 50 feet in height but is usually restricted to less than half that size, with glossy 2- to 8-inch leaves and fragrant cream-colored flowers which can appear year-round. In the U.S., a majority of the 4- to 12-inch greenish-yellow fruits ripen at some point between November and March.
If you can't plant the seeds right away, dry them on a paper towel after cleaning them and refrigerate them for up to 80 days.
Sow Your Pomelo Seeds
Filling a flower pot with a damp mix of 1 part peat moss or seed starting mix and 1 part sand, drain the seeds While they are still damp, plant them in the pot at a depth equal to twice their length. Cover that pot with plastic wrap, to keep the mix moist, and place it on a sunny windowsill or under a grow-light, where temperatures remain between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
The seeds should germinate within two to eight weeks if their mix isn’t allowed to dry out. About three weeks after they have sprouted, transplant them into individual 4-inch pots filled with a cactus, palm and citrus potting mix. Once your seedling shows signs of new growth after being transplanted, you can begin to fertilize it every two weeks with a dilute plant food for acid-loving plants,such as 30-10-10 -- mixing 1/4 teaspoon of the crystals with 1 gallon of water. Continue to grow the plant on a sunny windowsill or under the center of a grow light.
