How to Propagate Nephelium?
Primary methods for propagating nephelium include seed sowing after treatment to remove dormancy, air layering, and grafting. Success hinges on warm temperatures, high humidity, and well-draining soil. Special techniques, such as scarifying seeds or applying rooting hormones, improve outcomes. Propagation can be challenging due to slow seed germination and variable success with cuttings. To propagate from seed, soak to soften the outer shell, plant in well-draining soil, and maintain consistent warmth and moisture. For air layering, wound a stem, apply rooting hormone, wrap in moist sphagnum moss, and encase in plastic until roots form.
