I had a few of the “bad” peach seeds from a few pits I had and only one of them actually grew roots. It took like 2 months though but I used your method and jt plumped up and now has roots!
I was eating a peach and the pit was already open! So i just took the seed out showed my mom and did this! Im Excited for a peach tree! Thank you for the tip-!
Same. My peach pit was cracked open at the end of my peach, and there is a seed inside. It does not look like those almonds in the video though. It does not have that skin on it. Is it immature? Will it not work due to this? Suppose I'll try it and see.
@@PEGGLORE there were no almonds in the video. The skin is a protective layer for the seed and it can come off. If it does, it can be prone to molding and rotting a bit faster in my experience.
@@vesgardens Yh, I meant they looked like almonds the ones you had. My one has no skin like your ones. Well it has a tiny bit. It's as if it's starting to reach maturity, and opened prematurely for no reason. I don't know, it is weird it was like it was.. I am intrigued to eat it to see what they're like. I'll regret I didn't grow it if I do that though, so will have to grow a tree now then.
Thankyou, very succinct. Funny I have two fully grown Blackboys that self sewed at my old house and must have broken through their own stones. Now Growing and producing well at my current home. ;)
I put the seed in the ground with shell still on it. I did in a mountain high desert an in 2 year's I had a tree there. It was next to a road an when it rained not to often the water came down off the road around it. It might still be there.? CA NV high mountain roadway's...
The tree had thrips, so I removed the damaged leaves and hosed the tree down good everyday or every other day. For indoor plants that had thrips, I would put some diatomaceous earth in a spray bottle with water and spray the whole plant with it. That way when it dried the thrips would walk over it and ultimately end up dying. You can do the same for outdoor plants, but you'd have to be mindful that the diatomaceous earth can kill beneficial bugs too. I would do that as a last resort for outdoor plants.
I have a sincere question.The image at the beginning of the video of the dried up seeds from the pit.Were those truly viable because I trashed several wrinkled dried up seeds like that thinking for sure they was not viable.
I soak them in water to see if they plump back up. Sometimes some of them do and I will try to germinate them. I'm pretty sure I've had a couple of them germinate before. It never hurts to try.
I make a mix of coconut coir, shale and perlite. I prefer coconut coir over peat moss because it isn't hydrophobic. The shale is what looks like rocks. And all the white stuff is perlite, which is a form of volcanic glass.
The seed will be firm. In my expectations, the squishy ones won't work, so I just throw them out. You can try to plant it anyway to see for yourself though!
Make sure the pot isn't too big and they are planted in a well-draining potting mix. If the potting mix is holding too much water then that can cause stunted growth. Also check for pests like thrips. My trees were stunted for both of these reasons.
Is the tree going to produce peaches? Many trees planted from seeds of fruit and vegetables bought at the grocery store do not produce fruit because they've been Genetically Modified not to reproduce. That way humans are fully reliant upon buying food instead of growing it.
Possibly. It depends on what kind of peaches you're buying and where you're buying them from. Probably best to buy from local fruit stands/farmers market if unsure. I do agree with you though. If you come across fruit at the store with those cutesy, trademarked names/patented fruits, don't even try.
You need to have the parent tree to pollinate it and it still might not grow true to seed. That is why commercial breeders propagate from cuttings that way getting an exact clone of the plant
LOL! Those were NOT almonds. They are peach seeds. The actual peach seed is INSIDE of the pit. Most people don't know that. I have a video showing how to crack them open. Check it out then try it for yourself. Good luck. You can also tell they aren't almonds because they look completely different when they germinate. A Google image search of the two should help.
@@vesgardens The seed that you took out of the pit looked nothing like the ones you folded in the paper towel. The one you took out looked all dried out!
@@jaysonm4710 That's because they weren't the same exact seeds. Those were dried out peach seeds. I put the text overlay saying "good seeds would be firm and plump" for a reason: to show some seeds will be dried out, others will be firm and plump (as shown in the next clip). If they're dried out you can put the seeds in water to see if the plump up and try germinating them too.

One of the best plant videos I’ve ever seen, thank you
Thank you so much. It was difficult to get it out of the pit. You saved me 90 days.
You're welcome. Glad I could help!
I had a few of the “bad” peach seeds from a few pits I had and only one of them actually grew roots. It took like 2 months though but I used your method and jt plumped up and now has roots!
I'm happy to hear that! I wish you lots of growth and fruits to come!
I was eating a peach and the pit was already open! So i just took the seed out showed my mom and did this! Im Excited for a peach tree! Thank you for the tip-!
For me, whenever the pit is already open the pit is squishy and no good. I hope yours was firm and plump. I wish you lots of growth!

Omg Tysm for the help it took me 30 minutes finding a video in like a voice

Nice!! I hope you enjoy all of your peaches this year!
Perfect and to the point
I threw a bunch of peach pits in a part of my yard… a year later I have probably 75 1’ tall baby peach trees 😂 sometimes nature comes through!!
Lol love that!!

What did you do with the bugs? How did you safely get rid of them?
The tree had thrips, so I removed the damaged leaves and hosed the tree down good everyday or every other day. For indoor plants that had thrips, I would put some diatomaceous earth in a spray bottle with water and spray the whole plant with it. That way when it dried the thrips would walk over it and ultimately end up dying. You can do the same for outdoor plants, but you'd have to be mindful that the diatomaceous earth can kill beneficial bugs too. I would do that as a last resort for outdoor plants.
Thank you so much!!
After you wrap the seed and put in a plastic bag. Do you seal the bag?
Yes.
Does it matter what kind of soil the seed is planted in? There are rocks on top of yours and then later some leaves?
I have a sincere question.The image at the beginning of the video of the dried up seeds from the pit.Were those truly viable because I trashed several wrinkled dried up seeds like that thinking for sure they was not viable.
I soak them in water to see if they plump back up. Sometimes some of them do and I will try to germinate them. I'm pretty sure I've had a couple of them germinate before. It never hurts to try.
What kind of soil do you grow the plant in? It looked like it was a mix of dirt and rocks?
I make a mix of coconut coir, shale and perlite. I prefer coconut coir over peat moss because it isn't hydrophobic. The shale is what looks like rocks. And all the white stuff is perlite, which is a form of volcanic glass.
Amazing!! Thank you so much 😃
@@vesgardens I can't just use dirt? This is unjustified
@@iiNgONYaMa you can use whatever soil works for you. I like making my own.
Did you put the seeds in water for 24 hours before doing to paper towel in bag?
@@latashaobryant7391 sometimes I do, not all the time. I will definitely do it if some seeds are shriveled up.
I don't know much about seed, but what if the seed is white and somewhat squishy? How do you tell if the seed is good?
The seed will be firm. In my expectations, the squishy ones won't work, so I just throw them out. You can try to plant it anyway to see for yourself though!
Does this eliminate the need for stratification?
Yes

Those are almonds in that germination part
No, they are not. Have you ever seen a peach seed? Peach seeds and almonds look exactly alike. What I'm showing in the video are peach seeds.
I'm copying vesma. I need friends like this
So I can mooch fresh fruits
😂
They always rotten, or mutch.
So you dry the out first please?
I do, but you don't have to.
My peach trees are still like 5 to 6 inches, they are not growing , it's been three months, they stopped growing, why?
Make sure the pot isn't too big and they are planted in a well-draining potting mix. If the potting mix is holding too much water then that can cause stunted growth. Also check for pests like thrips. My trees were stunted for both of these reasons.

They have to be heirloom
You need to have the parent tree to pollinate it and it still might not grow true to seed. That is why commercial breeders propagate from cuttings that way getting an exact clone of the plant
Yeah, if you want the exact same fruit, you need to graft with cuttings. Most peach trees are self-pollinating, so another tree isn't needed.
@@vesgardens Correct but even the self-polinators struggle to grow true to seed. For some reason, most stone fruits basically never grow true to seed
The moist paper towel part was a bunch of almonds, not peach seeds😊
