Seeds are still viable beyond pack date. Store in a cool and dry location such as the refrigerator or basement to best preserve germination rates. Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation: Choose a clear, sunny location that is not in the shade of other trees. Trees establish roots better in sandy, well-drained soils rather than heavy, poorly drained soil. Remove weeds, large rocks, and litter from the planting area. Till the soil 8-10 inches deep and rake several times to break up large clods. It is best to do this when the soil is dry enough to not stick to garden tools. Loosening the soil will help the plant establish strong roots. Planting: Soak seeds 48 hours in hot tap water. Next, to cold-stratify, roll seeds in a damp paper towel and place in a resealable bag. Place the resealable bag in a refrigerator to keep the seeds at 35F for at least 90 days. To germinate the seeds after cold-stratifying, place bags in 70F-90F area. Check every other day. Once roots are visible, sow in moist potting soil and place in a sunny area that is at least 65F, or directly sow outdoors when soil is at least 65F. Sow seeds 1 inch deep in soil and keep soil moist until established. Seedbeds can be covered with plastic film to promote germination. Planting Depth: 1 inch Spacing: 18 inches Care During the Season: Watering: Avoid dry soil, water about once a day and keep seedlings moist until established. Mature Jujube Trees are drought-tolerant. Weeding: Keep plants as weed-free as possible. When plowing or hoeing do not dig deeper than 1 inch to prevent from cutting the feeder rooters which may slow the plant's growth. Fertilizing: Seedlings may be fertilized when they are at least 4 inches tall:. Harvesting: Pick Jujube fruits before they fall at full maturity.
