10 Thai Custard Apple Seeds

Both in tree and in fruit, the custard apple, Annona reticulata L, is generally rated as the mediocre or "ugly duckling" species among the prominent members of this genus. Its descriptive English name has been widely misapplied to other species and to the hybrid ATEMOYA, and it is sometimes erroneously termed "sugar apple", "sweetsop" and, by Spanish-speaking people, "anon" or "rinon", in India, "ramphal", all properly applied only to Annona squamosa. It has, itself, acquired relatively few appropriate regional names. Most commonly employed as an alternate name in English-speaking areas is bullock's-heart or bull's-heart; in French, coeur de boeuf; Portuguese, coracao de boi; in Spanish, often merely corazon—all alluding to its form and external blush. The skin color is reflected in the Bolivian name, chirimoya roia, the Salvadoran anona rosada, and the Guatemalan anona roja or anona colorada. In the latter country it is also known as anona de seso. Araticum ape or araticum do mato are additional names in Brazil. Some people refer to it as Jamaica apple, or as netted custard apple, which is translated as anona de redecilla in Honduras and Nicaragua. Cachiman, cachiman coeur de boeuf and corossol sauvage may be heard in the French-influenced West Indies.

In the Netherlands Antilles it is kasjoema. This name and boeah nona are used in Surinam. In Cuba, it is mamon or chirimoya. Some Central Americans give it the name anona, or anonillo; Colombians, anon pelon. To the Carib Indians the fruit was known as alacalyoua; to the Aztecs, quaultzapotl, and to the Maya, tsulimay, tsulilpox, tsulipox, pox, oop, or op. It is generally called in the Philippines sarikaya; in India ramphal, nona or luvuni, in Malaysia, nona kapri, or lonang; in Thailand, noi nong"; in Cambodia, mo bat or mean bat; in Laos, khan tua lot; in South Vietnam, binh bat; North Vietnam, qua na.

The custard apple does best in low-lying, deep, rich soil with ample moisture and good drainage. It grows to full size on oolitic limestone in southern Florida and runs wild in light sand and various other types of soil in the New and Old World tropics but is doubtless less productive in the less desirable sites.

The tree is fast-growing and responds well to mulching, organic fertilizers and to frequent irrigation if there is dry weather during the growing period. The form of the tree may be improved by judicious pruning.

Custard apple seeds are hard therefore before planting their seeds, soak the seeds in water and leave them for 3 days. This gives you success in the seed germination process. And after leaving the seed put it in a blotting paper or towel.

Take a pot and fill it with well-draining soil. Peat with vermiculite.

You can use a seed raising soil or make your own.

Sow the seeds about 1 inch deep keeping 2-inch separation between them.

Mixed potting mix with river sand in equal amount and filled the pot, leaving top 1 inch empty.

Placed the seeds on the soil and fill the pot with the soil.

Water well and locate the pot in indirect sunlight.

Keep the soil damp as the seeds germination needs a humid and warm environment.

The Custard apple seeds germinate quickly (about 3-4 weeks) in the temperature range between 18 and 25°C (64 and 77°F). When the seedlings grow to a height of 3 to 4 inches, it is time to transplant them.
