When is it time to repot a lychee tree grown from seed? 1 time a year is probably enough :). I have been Growing Lychee trees from seed, seeds from store bought fruit. It's time for a repot.
2 Year update: czcams.com/video/UzTS-5tTFjM/video.html
It makes me happy to see more people growing lychees on a pot like myself. Greetings from Mexico :)
Greetings! How old/big are your lychees, if I may ask? :)
I'm going to try this! My husband loves lychee. Thank you for this.
Sounds like a really good idea! Hope he (and you) loves the plant too 😊
Just so people know , lychees take about 7 years before you will get fruit and that depends n your areas climate , these grow well in tropical areas , cold areas may not do well at all , great projects but they do take time before you see any fruits come on your trees.
Thanks for this information 😊.
i bought some lychee seeds online. i planted them all in soil. now i might take a few out to use the wet paper towel method. thank you
Awesome! Good luck with your Lychees 😊
Would love an update on these after their repotting 😊
Im glad that you are interested. I might do one later this year then :)
It's interesting that the stems aren't red anymore but now it's more like bark
Yes, I agree :)
Nice trees, I'll be giving this a try this summer 👍🏾
Thank you 😊. Good luck!
Thanks for your information. I'm try to this.
looks great!
Thank you 😊
Greetings from Coastal Texas! I have a sweetheart lychee tree that I'm experimenting with... have 2 air layering and 2 cutting experiments going right now. My seed experiment did not turn out good like yours. You truly have a green thumb, BTW, my daughter is currently in Sweden attending school.
Greetings. Truly a blessing to be able to have one of these trees outdoors. I can understand why you like it so much 😊. Good luck with your experiments, and thanks! Interesting choice of country, it is usually the other way around :).
I'm growing one too!
I have some lychee plants that must be about 4 or 5 months old now. Fresh lychees are not super easy to find where i live so i was happy to get my hands on some. I had almost 100 percent germination rate. The biggest plant is about 15 centimeters or so. I havent repotted them yet, they would probably be bigger if i did.
Nice that you found some :). It’s fun to grow ”rare” or ”new” fruits from supermarkets. Good luck with your lychees!
Great video the Lychee looks beautiful! I’ve just planted 8 or so seedlings in a pot I was wondering how they’ll turn out! Thats how I found your channel 😀
Im glad you made it here! It’s so fun planting seeds from fruits 😊. You made me wanna start some new seed now 🍀.
@@NordicPlantLover mango is really fun and easy! 😀
I see u already have mango 😅
Yeah, but they are not doing that great 😅
I'm growing lychee in finland. My trees are 3 years old. The care is similar to lemon trees. In summer they are on my balcony and winter the plants are inside under grow lights.
It’s nice to hear from someone doing this in similar conditions 😊. How big are they now at 3 years? Thank you for sharing!
@@NordicPlantLover… about 7 years before you get fruit and that’s in tropical places so cold places I really don’t know even if they would fruit , if your conditions are nice and warm you may be ok .👍
I’m gonna need to plant 50 to get 1
Why so many? 🤣 Did you try before?
Wow they look healthy, do you keep them indoors always?
Thank you. Yes, so far they have been indoors all the time.
Woah the avocado leaves are so large now
Haha yeah, growing like crazy.
Hello Nordic Plant Lover!!! I am Dr Param Singh from India, where Litchie/Lychee is quite native!!!
Good to see both your videos on the Lychee growing from seed, and the progress to the 9 month/one year stage!!!
I do want to see the present stage of both your plants. This is the waning part of the lychee season for this year, and have picked up some lychees for attempting my own experiment.
What I've been told is that lychee from seed will take a somewhat longer time to reach maturity level to give fruit, whereas if one were to graft a shoot (the guys never mention from where to pick up the shoot - from an already growing tree, or graft one seedling's healthy branch on to another seedling!!) on to another growing stump, the growth and yield is healthier...
Also, my question to you, and to myself (being inexperienced), is: lychees are usually a fairly large tree, like the mango. So why are we growing them in pots? Anyway, if you know that they'll grow equally well in a pot (also for mangoes), please do inform (and guide).
Will a bonsai work better or differently?
How do you make a bonsai!!!!😃
Hello! It’s interesting to hear from you, living in a native Lychee country! :)
I have never seen a full grown tree, so I have no idea how growing them in pot will work. Thats the fun part of the experiment :). Good luck with your trees!
I have watched videos on CZcams and seen that Lychee trees grown from large pots 25 gallons or also bare fruits as well. The main thing with that you have to give supplements/minerals every so often and keep pruning it.
Thank you for the tips :)
Really great videos!! I came for the content and stayed for your personality. :) I just started a few experiments with avocado-, mango- and papaya seeds and some ivy-cuttings (to try to form into some kind of indoor bonsai).. Do you have any experience with ivy? Anyways thanks to you, I‘ll probably also have to try some lychee-seeds, even though I already have around 60 cuttings and small pots in my apartment - thanks, plant lover! 😅😂😂 all the best to you bro and keep spreading that plant love!🤙🌱❤
Thank you so much for the kind words 😊. I have some ivy cuttings at the moment as well. I plan on multiply them and put outdoors in the garden somewhere. But my ivy always seems to come with bugs when i buy them, so I have to start over 😅.
I like your commitment, a true plant lover!
See you around 😊
@@NordicPlantLover Thank you for the kind reply. In that case I wish you all the best for this years ivy!😄I think its really interesting how you‘re documenting the growth of your plants from seed, your results look amazing and your passion and joy for plants comes across in a really authentic and refreshing way. I‘m looking forward to watching your plants and channel grow. 😊🍀
@@adamcrapple6089 Good to read of your experience, Adam!!
Please do share thoughts on lychee on points I've asked NPL (Nordic Plant Lover!!) and Erwin above!!!😊
@@paramdsingh7265 Hello Dr Param Singh, thanks for your interest. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to plant lychee seeds because I realized that where I live (in Switzerland) fresh lychees can only be found until the end of march in supermarkets. So this experiment will have to wait until next year. ;) But some of the mangos and avocados I planted in pots already started to grow very nicely. :) The reason I (and probably also NPL) can plant these seeds only in pots is the climate I live in. During Winter it would be too cold for the plants outdoors so at least at that time I have to keep the indoors. Greetings and all the best from Switzerland 👍😊
@@adamcrapple6089 Thank you for your response Adam (cant fathom what cr apple would be!!)!! :)
Yes, I was a bit surprised NPL and you experimenting with lychees, mangoes at your altitude(s)!! NPL being even further North!!! But you do have controlled interiors, I know, so growing these plans indoors would be the right thing to do supplementing sunlight with grow lights and room warmers. I hope your plants grow up healthy when you experiment next year!! I hope they produce fruit too in days to come - that's one reason I was thinking of raising them up as bonsai plants. Lychee and mango are huge trees, and will require larger pots eventually... All the best. I'm in the process of doing some experiments with lychee and mango, so will share with you both if I do achieve anything to share!!! :)
The leaves look quite similar to mango at this stage. What variety of lychee is it?
Yeah, they kinda look like a mix between mango and citrus. I love the leaves! Not sure what variaty sorry.
Are they still alive? If yea pls make an update
I also got those brown ends on my leafs which is so annoying 😂
But I guess that’s how nature works
Yes, they are. One is doing great and the other not so good. I agree, It’s time for an update 😊
My question is my litchi trees are still small, i grew them from seed and i noticed in this video that the tips of the leaves are a brownish colour but only the tips.. Whats the reason for this, is there a shortage of nutrients.. Im from south africa.. Any advice?
I think it can be many reasons, but I notice they dry out really easy if I forget to water them a bit. I dont know much about lychees nutrient needs. I just make sure to repot regularly.
Great video! Nice to see your trees are doing well! Do you plan to prune them soon or let them grow larger?
In January I started 5 Lychee seeds with the wet paper towel method and all of them put out roots, but after I planted them in soil, only 2 developed. Now, one of them is 10 cm tall and the other is about 17 cm tall. I'm excited for them to grow more and get a woody trunk.
Keep growing!
Thank you! :) I am not planning on pruning at the moment. Maybe later if they shoot out very much in height. But so far the Lychees have been keeping a nice shape I think.
Nice that you had several seeds going, maybe lychees are that way because the same thing happened to me.
Good luck with your trees!
Hi Erwin, I'm posting the same comment that I sent yesterday to Nordic Plant Lover - please share your experience and thoughts too!! 😊

How do you make a bonsai!!!!😃
What do i feed my lychee tree
Use allround fertz if the plant is young. If it produce food, use one with high P-value (potassium) :).
I have grown lychee at home, it's almost 4 weeks, 1 have show the growth of 4 leafs , but 2 have very slow growth, can you plz guide me, I have started grown lychee after watching your 1st video, so now plz guide me, thanks
Nice! Congrats on you lychee 😊. Only 2 of 4 of mine started to grow, and one was much slower than the other, I don’t know why :(. But I have notice they don’t like to dry out too much, then they can drop leaves pretty quick.
@@NordicPlantLover one of my is to slower, even I have changed his pot as well shif to larger pot, let see how much more time it will take
@@NordicPlantLoverhow often do you water them? Do they stay in natural light inside the house? Why the leaves go brown and then the plant dies off?
@hanifparacha I usually water when the top soil is dry, approxl 2 times a week. But it depends on the weather, if its very sunny, a little more. I use a mix of natural and plant light. One is currently in an eastern window, doing really well. The other also suffer from bad brown leaves, I dunno why I am afraid :(.
I planted this about a month and a half ago. Total 4-5 seeds rooted and started leaves. I have 2 left only. 3 dried off and died. This one also has stopped producing more leaves. I started these seeds in store bought high drainage soil but a few days back moved them to garden soil. Hope this survives the change of soil. Why are the leaves drying off? Any idea? Mine stayed inside uptil now and just moved out a few days back
