Sugar Apple Germination:

1) Sugar apple seeds may take 30 days or longer to germinate. Speeding up the process is possible, but it cuts down on the percentage of seeds that will germinate. If you choose to accelerate the germination process, treat the seeds before planting by either soaking them in room-temperature water for three days or by scarifying them by aggressively rubbing with sandpaper. Be sure to Change water Daily. Although there are several ways to accomplish scarification breaking or weakening the seed coat....the easiest and safest ways include using baby nail clippers to snip a tiny opening in the seed coat ( Not too deep) or rubbing the seed between two pieces of rough grit sandpaper will work.

2) The sugar apple has a deep taproot and you'll need a deep container.

 meant for trees to accommodate it. Plant the sugar apple seeds 3/4-inch deep into the moist planting mix. Place the container in a shaded area using a heated propagator to be sure the temperature remains above 70 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. Keep the soil evenly moist during germination, but be careful not to overwater it or the seeds will rot.

Germinación de la anona:

1) Las semillas de anona pueden tardar 30 días o más en germinar. Es posible acelerar el proceso, pero se reduce el porcentaje de semillas que germinarán. Si decide acelerar el proceso de germinación, trate las semillas antes de plantarlas, ya sea sumergiéndolas en agua a temperatura ambiente durante tres días o escarificándolas frotándolas con fuerza con papel de lija. Asegúrese de cambiar el agua a diario. Aunque hay varias formas de lograr la escarificación rompiendo o debilitando la capa de la semilla... las formas más fáciles y seguras incluyen usar un cortaúñas para bebés para cortar una pequeña abertura en la capa de la semilla (no demasiado profunda) o frotar la semilla entre dos trozos de papel de lija de grano grueso.

2) La anona tiene una raíz pivotante profunda y necesitará un recipiente profundo.

destinado a árboles para acomodarla. Plante las semillas de anona a 3/4 de pulgada de profundidad en la mezcla de plantación húmeda. Coloque el recipiente en un área sombreada usando un propagador calentado para asegurarse de que la temperatura se mantenga por encima de los 70 grados Fahrenheit en todo momento. Mantenga la tierra uniformemente húmeda durante la germinación, pero tenga cuidado de no regarla en exceso o las semillas se pudrirán.
