Instructions:
We recommend using the following to sow the seeds:
To plant: pre-soak the coffee seeds in water for 12-48 hours(optionally, to sterilize the seeds, you can also soak in hydrogen peroxide for 2 hours). Sow the seeds in very moist potting medium, and cover with a humidity dome. It is important to keep the seeds >70F, ideally 75-85F, and out of direct sunlight(grow lights or filtered sun is best).
Once the seeds sprout. you can start to remove the humidity dome. Fertilize your coffee plant once a month.
