How to Sow and Care for Orange Fruit
The ideal time to sow is in the spring when the soil has warmed up sufficiently. Planting many seeds would help because only a few will develop into young plants. Sow the seeds at 1-inch intervals on a line and in large pots at 3-inch intervals, using a soil mixture of sand and potting soil.
You need to keep the soil moist but only sticky once the seedlings emerge. Once the seedlings reach a height of 20-28 cm, you can transplant them into large pots filled with soil, fertilizer, and a small amount of well-rotted manure. Generally, young saplings need to be exposed to sunlight, but keeping them indoors during the first winter in a protected area is advisable.
