Here are 5 short tips for germinating Faidherbia albida (Apple-leafed Acacia) seeds:
 
Scarify the Seeds – Use sandpaper or a knife to scratch or nick the seed coat.
 
Soak the Seeds – Soak seeds in hot water (80°C/176°F) for 12-24 hours to soften the seed coat.
 
Use Well-Draining Soil – Plant in a loose, well-draining soil mix to prevent waterlogging.
 
Warm Temperature – Keep seeds at 25-30°C (77-86°F) for optimal germination.
 
Keep Moist – Keep the soil lightly moist, ensuring good drainage to avoid rot.
 
Germination may take 2-3 weeks, so maintain consistent conditions for the best results.
