Great question! When growing olives from seeds, you want well-draining soil to mimic their natural Mediterranean habitat. I used a mix of good-quality seed starting mix and sand (about 3 parts soil to 1 part sand) to improve drainage and aeration. You can buy Quality seed starting mix from Amazon: amzn.to/49SwzbV
That's so exciting! 🌿 Olive trees are such a rewarding project. Make sure to scarify the seeds and soak them for a couple of days before planting to boost germination. Can't wait to see your progress-keep us updated!
This kind of olive tree will not produce identical fruit as the tree from which it was removed. But it is a good base for grafting an olive tree if desired.It's good that it's free, especially if you want to have an olive only as a decorative tree.
Thank you for trying the method! Olive seeds can be a bit tricky, as they have a hard outer shell that can slow down germination. Yes, gently nicking or filing the pointed end of the seed (called scarification) can help water and air penetrate the shell, encouraging sprouting. Be careful not to damage the seed inside! Also, ensure the seeds are fresh and soaked in water for 24-48 hours before planting to soften the shell. I’d love to hear updates if you give it another try-best of luck! 🌱😊
Thank you for your comment! I'm glad you noticed the aeonium flower. Maintaining aeoniums can be pretty simple once you get the hang of it. They love bright, indirect sunlight and need well-draining soil to avoid root rot. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings, especially during their dormant season in the summer. If yours isn’t thriving, you might want to check the light and watering routine. Too much direct sun or water can stress them. Let me know if you have more questions!
Growing an olive tree from store-bought olives in a jar is generally not feasible. Here's why: Processing and Preservation: Olives in jars are usually processed and preserved using methods like brining or curing, which can damage the seeds inside and make them non-viable for planting. Seed Viability: Even if the seeds inside the olives are intact, the processing they undergo often involves high salt content or other chemicals that can prevent germination. Hybrid Varieties: Many olives sold commercially come from hybrid varieties. Seeds from hybrids often do not produce plants that are true to the parent variety, leading to unpredictable and often undesirable traits in the new plants. For successful olive tree cultivation, it's better to purchase seeds or young saplings from a nursery or garden center. These are specifically prepared and selected for planting, ensuring better growth and development.
Yes, cracking the olive pit to plant the seed inside can actually help! The outer shell of the olive pit is tough, so cracking it can speed up germination by allowing the seed easier access to moisture and nutrients. Just be careful not to damage the inner seed, as it’s delicate. With some warmth, well-draining soil, and patience, you might see a seedling emerge! Good luck with your olive tree journey! 🌱
That sounds like a fun project! Growing olives from seeds can be a rewarding experience. Remember to be patient, as olive trees can take a few years to mature and produce fruit. Enjoy the journey of nurturing those seeds into flourishing trees!

Any advice on how to get a olive seed from a store bought olive to germinate? assuming the embryo inside is still alive that is. I was eating Jalapeno stuffed Queen Olives and i noticed one of them had a seed in it instead of a jalapeno. Sure i know if it does somehow germinate and sprout it won't be that hardy but sometimes seeds when soaked in vinegar from store bought preserved foods can still sprout as a store bought pickled tobasco pepper i had did once but died soon after as i find plants are harder to look after if they sprout after being processed I got lucky with the pepper seed even sprouting honestly and i only tried to germinate them as i had to throw out the pickled peppers anyways as they pasted their shelf life which i was surprised to find some that sprouted and survived for years in vinegar. This is just me being curious and nerdy honestly
Here are some key points about olive germination: Seed Preparation: Olive seeds often have a hard seed coat that can inhibit germination. To improve the chances of successful germination, the seeds may need to be scarified (scratched or nicked) to allow water to penetrate. Stratification: Olive seeds may require a period of cold stratification, which mimics the natural winter conditions needed to break seed dormancy. This typically involves placing the seeds in a moist medium at a low temperature (around 4°C or 39°F) for several weeks. Sowing: Once prepared, the seeds should be planted in a well-draining soil mix. They should be placed at a depth of about 1-2 cm (0.4-0.8 inches). Germination Conditions: Olives require a warm environment for germination, with temperatures around 20-25°C (68-77°F). The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Remember germination can be slow and may take several weeks to several months. Patience is key, as olive seeds can be slow to sprout.
What kind of soil should I buy. I’ve heard you should mix the soil with sand? What did you use?

Just got my hands on a dozen seeds! Gonna wait for it to warm up a bit before I try to germinate them

I tried your method, but not even one of the seeds came up. I was told then I need to cut the one point of the pip open? What is your opinion? Tx

hello
I noticed that you have an aeonium flower and it was very cheerful.
Can you tell me how it is maintained? I have it, but it's not cool

Can the seeds with solt can be bad please let me know!!
Yes they are!

It's not magic of nature its God power and glory
That's for sure!!!

Can one use black olive pips
To grow olive trees from black olive pits, you can certainly try, though it can be a bit challenging!
Nice

Are you kidding me? Green olives are not ripe,take black once
Is this an ai video? 🤔
Why?
