How To Germinate Cherry Seeds That Works every Time - Growing Cherry Trees From Seeds

Hi I like your video

Thanks for your easy to follow video, am going to collect some cherry pips this Xmas and follow your instructions.

my seeds did not sprout in the refrigerator

I've got a question. You see, in nature cherry tree propagates its seeds by making animals have the fruits and carry seeds to be out onto the soil so that seeds will be placed and start to grow up when its surrounding is friendly to germinate. Or some of them must be fallen into the ground directly and searching for the chance to germinate on the spot where they were placed.

But now, we are interfering plant's natural growth process, cracking the shells, putting seeds in the freezer to fool them as if they're passing through cold winter, then planting them in small pots and so forth...

So my question is, what if we just put the cherries in the soft soils and watch them starting the whole growth process all by themself, with no interference of us, just let them grow the way as they always have done in nature.

Then, won't they be germinated nor sprouting, sprawling up? If we don't get in their own lifecycles artificially, they won't be able to grow nor survive? I mean, what about the planting cherry in the pot instead of seedling like that being said in this video? Won't it work?

I see now where i've gone wrong in the past, thank you so much for sharing this video! Very good explanation and I can't wait to try this <3 Love from Australia!

Hi Alex how are you?
Thanks allots for your information 🙏

Ha wild accent dude! I'm getting Sheffield and Jamaican with a pinch of Birmingham and Indian and I don't know!👌😅

Wow - thank you for showing the intricacies and methods to get the seeds out. I’m in the US. Trying to get self-sustainable. ❤

With your help I have my 1st seedling after so many failed try’s. Thank you God Bless

Thanks my friend ❤️ , 2023 20 September

Do store bought cherry seeds need a cultivar.
If i plant 4 or 5 in my back yard , will they actually produce cherries

I know you can grow from seeds but the main question is do that tree gonna produse cherry fruits or just gonna be a green tree?

Is it possible to grow an "Evans Bali Cherry Tree" from seeds, with the tree that sprouts being a true Evans Bali Cherry Tree? I have seen Evans Bali Cherry Tree seeds available online, but am wondering if it would actually grow to be a true Evans Bali Cherry.

Im excited to try this! I live in Washington State, & we have 4 Seasons,& right now,i have Pineapples growing in several areas in my large yard! I will bring them in ,once it starts getting Cold Out! Wish me Luck!

After damaging a few seed i came up with this method ! Take the pit sharpest end and hold it to a bench grinder. After a few seconds a small hole will appear in the hard outer shell ,through this hole you can easily nip away at the hard outer shell with a pair of nail clippers. Did over a dozen in less than 5 minutes !!!

I tried lots of ways to get that seed out of the shell. PLEASE quit nipping and pinching your hands. This is super easy, fast and nobody gets hurt. You probably already own a cheap pair of needle nosed pliers. Drop the seed into the hole intended for cutting wire. Close the pliers. The hole is just a little smaller than the cherry pit. Ta=da the shell is broken. The pits are a little sticky from cherry pulp sometimes and you might need something pointy to push them out. If your pliers are small like the jewelry or electronics size the wire hole might be too small. My pliers are cheap ones stamped "China." A gazillion of them were made and sold. Look for their green handles but almost every set will work. Try it.

Jamaican cherry seeds are so different. There is no hard outer shell. It's chewable, and they grow without assistance from humans. There's a cherry tree growing outside that we didn't plant.

your accent is kinda annoying lol

Excellent demonstration - thank you.

Thank you

You are fun, but you miss important information that promotes 99% success. One is using hydrogen peroxide for 20-180 minutes to soak seeds. Another is greenhouse effect by putting a clear plastic bag or bottle over young plants to hold the moisture. And always: pH of soil and water. Soil shock kills. Try using coconut coir or perlite or vermiculite. Or my favorite: cow compost/Peatmoss/fine pine bark mixed together and sterilized and using diluted worm casting juice for the initial fertilizer. pH correction may be needed. Put baby plants over 100 degree heated mat to stimulate fast root growth.

Can I start tomorrow grafting or to late

Thanks a lott

Very helpful. I have a suggestion. I discovered that a crab cracker tool is perfect for breaking them open. It has a small end for crabs legs that is perfect for cracking the hard outer shell.

Thank you, I will try this. I love your video. I found your channel today and we subscribe.😊

The ones I break open did not have anything inside guess I will have to keep trying to find some seeds to germinate

Did you ever go back in and re-water while the seeds were germinating in the fridge?

I was born in 1981 and just now " in todays age I found out that a cherry seed was inside of another cherry seed , Nature is so wonderful , beautiful an mysterious

I tried the cold stratification process and it is been more than 2 months still no luck. They are a bit squishy is it because of too much water

❤️

Thanks👍🏾

Cheers.

Love your sense of humour.. 😂

Hi there! I have to be honest that at this point, i don’t even trust google after I’ve seen this video. I am confronting a problem. My mom stored the seeds of some delicious cherries from weeks ago. They started to have mold on them and when I cracked one, the little seed inside is dry. The big question is: can I still do the process as you instructed if they are in this state? Thanks!

Did you know it takes the same amount of time to say , do it yourself as DIY

will a nutcracker work, too?

WHERE YOU CAN PLANT IT? THAT IS THE QUESTION YOU NEED TO GIVE FIRST.

CAN THAT HOLD THE HOT WEATHER IN THE DESERT WITH 120 DEGREE\?

May I suggest that instead of wire cutters. Try standard adjustable pliers in the larger adjustable setting.
Hard outer breaks very easily and the seed is not damaged.

Does the type of cherry matter? I have Rainier cherrys and im attempting to follow this process. Please advise and thank you.

do cherry trees do well in the tropics of Thailand?

They need a colder climate, than Texas. like WASHINGTON! Places up North

Well heck Texas is to hot for cherry trees any way. I very can grow peach trees

I never had any luck germinating cherry seeds. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW THEY CAN REPRODUCE, OUT IN THE WILD ANY MORE! With out MANS HELP

Yup 😀

Do you think ume plums would get treated the same?

I don't have luck germinating any seed from Walmart.

I put all the pits into a Ziploc bag and use a hammer lightly to break the shell
