Kiwi is a sweet and sour, exotic fruit that you can grow yourself. In the article, we will talk about the features of care and cultivation for kiwi.

How to grow kiwi

The pulp of the fruit is kneaded with a fork; seeds are selected and with the remains of gruel tied in gauze, washed several times with water; seeds are laid out on a napkin and dried at room temperature. Dried seeds must first be germinated.

Seeds should be placed in small individual pots; they are placed on the surface of the soil and sprinkled with a thin layer of earth. It does not need to be compacted, otherwise it will be difficult for the plant to break through to the surface. The soil must be sprayed every day so that it is constantly moistened.

Therefore, for planting kiwi seeds, you will need to build a small greenhouse from a bowl, a rag soaked in water and plastic wrap. After the first sprouts appear, they can be moved to a separate box at a shallow depth and covered with a film. Periodically open the film so that the plant “breathes”.

How often should kiwi be watered

The amount of water used and the frequency of kiwi watering procedures are determined by air temperature. In the warm season, the vine requires up to 2-3 waterings per week. During cold weather, when its growth becomes noticeably less intense, it can be limited to only 1 time in 2 weeks.
