Seed Comments
Some growers do not clean the seeds. If you do clean them, the seed is brown to dark brown, and 22-30 mm long. Since the seeds are large, you can individually place them in the soil, so that they are half-buried, or lightly covered. The seedlings are subject to rot, and make sure that you do not overwater them. Seed can be collected from the ground beneath the parent tree, and you should treat it for weevils. Salmon says the seeds are ripe from Oct to Feb.
