Tips to grow Pear:

  1. Arrange good quality pear seeds.
  2. Soak the seeds in warm water before 2 days of planting. The soil should be well drained, moist, soggy but not waterlogged.
  3. Plant the seed 0.5 inches deep in the soil. If the seedling grows too big for its pot, you can transfer it.
  4. We can add compost and for better growth.
  5. Pull fruit when it starts to change color while it’s still hard. Harvest pears when they are mature but still hard. Mature pear trees produce a lot of fruit in a short window of time.
