Soursop Seedlings

Question

I saved some seeds from a Soursop Fruit and managed to germinate 6 of them! I am ready to plant them but wanted to start them in pots until they were a little older. I germinated them using the paper towel and plastic bag method. They sprouted within the last month and are still small, but ripped through the paper towel. What size pots would be acceptable for them to go in?

Answer 1

Start small, and work your way up. Starting in a 1 gallon pot will be plenty at this time. Each time you repot, once the roots show through the bottom, you will only go up to a container that is an inch or two larger on all sides. You don't want to go too big, too fast.

Here is an article that will help you care for the trees, once you do get them potted up:
