1. Selecting Papaya Seeds:
- Opt for seeds from a ripe and healthy papaya.
- Scoop out the seeds, wash off any residue, and let them dry for a day.
- Choose non-hybrid seeds for better chances of a fruitful tree.
2. Preparing the Planting Site:
- Papayas love sunlight. Choose a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Ensure well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH.
3. Planting Papaya Seeds:
- Plant the seeds directly into the soil, about half an inch deep.
- Space multiple seeds at least 8-10 feet apart, as papaya trees can grow quite large.
