Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to help soften the seed coat and improve germination rates.

Sowing:

Sow seeds indoors or in a greenhouse 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost date.
Use seed-starting trays filled with a well-draining seed-starting mix.
Plant seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in the soil.
Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 14-28 days under optimal conditions.
Maintain a temperature of 75-85°F (24-29°C) during the germination period.
Ensure consistent moisture and good air circulation.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and they have developed several true leaves.
Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil.
Space seedlings at least 15-20 feet apart to accommodate their growth.

Care and Maintenance:

Watering: Water young plants regularly to establish a strong root system. Once established, Ceiba Pentandra is relatively drought-tolerant but will benefit from occasional deep watering during dry periods.
Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the base of the tree to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
Pruning: Prune to remove any dead or damaged branches and to shape the tree as desired. Prune in late winter or early spring.
