PASSIONFRUIT SEED GERMINATION
Fill
a pot that’s 4 inches across and has drainage holes with an all-purpose
compost. Moisten the compost until water drains from the holes. Press each of
the dry seeds into the compost. Cover each with a thin layer of compost. Lower the
pot into a large zippered plastic storage bag. Seal the bag and set it in a
warm space, such as your kitchen windowsill. Do not allow the compost to dry.
Monitor the seeds until they germinate, which generally takes two to three
weeks. Plant the individual passion vine seedlings in 3-inch pots filled with
the same multipurpose compost. Dig a hole approximately 1 to 1 1/2 inches deep
before lowering the seedling and backfilling with the original medium. Maintain
evenly moist soil and transplant the seedlings when they reach a height of 10
inches. Passion vines thrive in well-drained soil with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5, and
full sunlight to partial shade.
