How to germinate palm seeds.
****Update 9/7/2020 We we’re in the process of moving and I didn’t get to make a follow up video. I posted pictures on Instagram of the progress. The peat moss has won! The germination rate is way better then the perlite.

interesting experiment for germination, good to know- they prefer higher moisture levels. I also have to add my opinion that don't think it's necessary to use hydrogen peroxide or bleach on the seeds, especially if you are not sterilizing the media also. it really isn't even necessary to remove the fruit at all, they germinate fine in nature. I live in south FL and foxtail palm seeds will germinate exactly where they fall without any intervention. I actually wonder if the fermenting fruit doesn't actually help the seed germinate as I have noticed anecdotally with papaya.
PeatMoss Worked Best. In case you guys wanted to know
ok i’m gonna try it today, i have some Foxtail seeds
He never posted a follow up did he?
My F.T. Palm dropped the branches with the seeds on them still but they weren't red like that? Are they still viable seeds?
I’ve only done this method with mature seeds.
Just some additional information I found on the web, just to add to this great video. I would recommend the solution with hydrogen peroxide vs. the bleach though as mentioned below. See you guys in 5 months! LOL
Bright red foxtail palm fruit, about the size of small tomatoes, grow in large clusters, with a single seed in each mature fruit. Picking foxtail palm seeds is best when the seeds are unblemished and overripe, as very ripe seeds are more likely to germinate. Soak the seeds in warm water for 48 to 72 hours to loosen the pulp. Change the water daily. Discard any seeds that float to the top and keep the ones that sink to the bottom. Floating seeds lack an endosperm and will not germinate. Rinse the seeds to remove any remaining pulp, then dip them in a solution of one part bleach to ten parts water. Rinse thoroughly. At this point, it’s necessary to scarify, or rough up the seeds, which mimics the natural course of events when seeds drop from high in the tree. To scarify the seeds, rub them gently with sandpaper or a file, or nick the outer coating with the tip of a knife. Don’t apply too much pressure. Plant the seeds in your garden immediately, as foxtail palm seeds don’t store well. The fresher, the better. Alternatively, you can propagate a foxtail palm indoors.

I just picked some fruit from my FISHTAILS palms and my arms and hands are burning like crazy. Ughhhhh. Using the same method for those as I do for most palms. Ie queens and foxes
In hotter areas of Africa they germinate faster and requires less work.anyway, thank you
Thanks for the info.
I know you moved but we were promised an update, lol.
I see it takes about 4-5 month's to germinate... which was better? Perlite or peat moss?
I posted update on Instagram with pictures. Peat moss.
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy Thanks for the reply. Sorry I don't have other social media. Thanks again for showing us this info!
Hello .
Im from India , I was wondering if I can place an order of foxtail seeds or any kind of palm trees. If you deal in exporting seeds then please reply me
Hi from Tampa! How much Peroxide to water to soak? How many days? Do u change the water and peroxide mix after so many days ?
Wow, I didn't know palm seeds we're that big. Very cool
Yes this variety is very large. Queen palm seeds are much smaller though! Thanks for watching 🌴
In the old days they were used as minature cannon balls
Wish these lived in my state/zone.
Outdoors Daddy, did you ever d another video where you showed the process while the Fox Tail Palm Seeds started to grow with the Pead moss/Perlite? I enjoyed the beginning process and Im ready to start my seeds. Thanks
No we moved and I never made another video but I posted some pictures on Instagram about it. Good luck.
Where abouts did you move too? I see the hat an they are local to me ..
Which was better petemoss or the other
Thanks so much. Please how can we turn the seeds to various species, like TENERA palm seedlings
This tree fruits and oil bad for health
Could you make an update video?, if you haven't already.
Ross Demmon MAGA! USA, USA! Sorry I just moved and things have been crazy. Check my Instagram I posted a pic there if the seeds sprouting. The peat moss worked best!
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy so what kinda soil do you use once they sprout ?
@@jjzmurphy The palm and cactus mix.
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy thanks for that I was wondering which worked vest
Is there anyway possible you can send me some of those seeds at least 25 of them that would be great thank you
No sorry I don’t have any seeds. You can order all kinds of seeds from eBay though.
@Allen Duncan I have a few.
I'm looking for African Palm Oil seeds.
Hey buddy you lay the seed on its side or is there a proper top or bottom to the seed ?
The pointy end is the top. The plant and roots will come out of the bottom.
You wearing TF outta that shirt my guy!
Keep up the gains, and happy growing
🤣🤣💪
Hi i want to ask, i grow my palm seed in water cup with garden soil, 2 small holes at the bottom of the cup and water it once a week. Can it grow?
Sure it can. The seeds fall from the tree and sprout on the ground so just take care of it. Not all seeds will sprout though. Only like 1/3 of mine did.
foxtail palms are very rare in the wild.
World is a big place how would you know? I'm skeptical of that.
The man sounds real slow and confused and the video is so anticlimactic....all that time wasted watching him clean and fill the water...
Thanks for your view!
so what happened? none of the seeds propagated? what a cliffhanger...
Read the description and look at the pics on Instagram. 😂
Sometimes the seeds are green then turn reddish/orange. Should I pick the seeds when they are green or wait until they are red?
It’s easier to remove the flesh when they are the reddish/orange color. Also this is how it happens naturally they fall off then sprout in the ground.
Hello sir, I just wanna ask if you experienced itchiness on your hands after doing that method of pealing and washing those fox tail palm seeds? I have done the same method just today too and washed my hands with soap after doing it, unfortunately tonight my hands are extremely itchy. 😩
No sorry I don’t recall having any itchiness after handling and washing the seeds.
Alright sir, thank you for your quick response. 😊 Oh btw nice video very informative, new subscriber here. 👍🏻
@@lourreybrooks3194 thanks! 👍
Yes. It does cause itchiness mostly when the fruit is not fully ripen
Ya little itchy...
My foxtail palm seeds took over 5 months just to start rooting
Yes mine took almost as long as well.
Thanks for your video tutorial bro👍👍
Your welcome! Good luck!
will this process work for California Medjool date palm seeds also?
Possibly I have never tried those.
I was in Miami yesterday at a shipper
There were these very tall and straight palms that ha orang colored nuts and there were dried and woody looking nuts lying on top of the ground
I collected a handful for propagation so can you tell me if these fried seeds will germinate??these seeds looked like almonds only larger.
I doubt it. You can try though won’t hurt. Takes around 4 months for germination. Good luck.
Oh fresh air love it.enjoy the breeze Outdoor daddy! 🤗👍
Done Subscribe👍
See you on your next update for this.really helpful for me though i'm just starting😊🌞
what/where is the result
arjimar baloyo Peat moss worked wayyy better! They have been sprouting now for the last 2 weeks!
Bro please give a update of this
I did on my Instagram. Posted a pic and said a little about which one worked better.
I'm from kerala(India)🙂
Can i get a live pic of that 🙂, I will message you on instagram
?????? so, no water in the box? where do u store it, shady, sunny??? Is there a part 2 that I haven‘t found yet???.
I posted a picture update on Instagram, check the description. You just spray mist water in there once or twice a week. I kept it on my back porch in the shade. Good luck.
How long it took for the seeds to sprout?
4 months. It’s a long process! 🌱
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy Wow
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy Depends on the palm some take less and some should take only a few weeks
Is green seeds good or no good. Seed branch fell off three before it turned red
I never tried green seeds so I’m unsure.
How much rupees tree
I would like this video except for I didn’t get an answer
I never saw a question from you? If you want to know which works best look in the description. 😉
Thankyou......❤️
Hi do you punch holes at the bottom of the container or once I have it covered and in the sun its ok?
No I don’t punch any holes I trap the moisture inside the plastic container.
Would not agree to wash off the doft coating
It worked for me. Good luck. 👍
So what happened to the follow up video???🤔
Check out the description, I never made one but I posted pictures and info on my Instagram account and posted a little info in the description.
Hello sir is that red lipstick palm seeds
Foxtail Palm.
Thanks man, hospital trimmed palms and left the fruits all over the ground. Had to scoop up a few and wasn’t sure how to extract the seeds safely.
Have you tried growing them still in the fruit outdoors? Feel like natural process might expedite things if no critters tamper with them.
Negative I have not tried natural method although they would sprout at base of tree but I don’t think there is any expedite method due to the shell being very hard. Just takes times. Put a bunch up in peat and kinda forget about them.
Ya sir giv us update pls..
Read the description and check Instagram for the update I never made a part 2 because we moved. But the peat moss worked best.
So going to try this
Good luck!
Any luck yet?
@@NoNORADon911 yes check the description or my Instagram account.
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy Yes saw it eventually after reading the comments, thank you for answering the 138th time :D
@@NoNORADon911 haha no problem! Peat-moss won!
Love your channel
Thank you. I need to get back to making videos! I’ve been slacking…
I was waiting for the follow up video ☹️
Sorry I never did it we ended up moving. I posted some pics on Instagram about which worked better and showed the results.
Which worked better? Just tell me? Where did u move too?
Any update?
Check the description I wrote which one there. Also I posted pics on my Instagram. 👍
No updates of anything??
I added the updates in the description and on my Instagram. Sorry been moving and haven’t made any new videos in a while.
Okey, I'll definately go with the peat moss then ☺ ... my experience has been a lot of mould/algae when using perlite. Even though i boiled water, and heat treated perlite, as well as used hydrogen peroxide on the seeds..
@@mrmrmanman7845 Yeah I had the same problem with perlite. The peat worked so much better!
😍❤
Thank you! I wish all the seeding/germination videos were this good...
Thank you! 🙏
Put some sand in your bucket. (I see I have already been here.., oops bye)
Is the seed edible?😎🏁
I’m sure sure to be honest. I wouldn’t think so. 🤷♂️
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy K
No its toxic dont try
Great video and great channel 👍🙂🇨🇦
Thank you! Canada that’s on my bucket list to visit there one day.
@@TheOutdoorsDaddy Awesome and hope you do one day! New subscriber 🙂
