The PERFECT WAY To GERMINATE MORINGA SEEDS!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2024
- These MORINGA seeds were started just 9 days ago. I believe I have the near perfect method of getting them to germinate & survive throughout production in zone 8. If need be, I will make adjustments along the way.
Step 1. Soak seeds in warm water for 48 hours. Step 2. Drain water and spread seeds on a tray
lined with heavily moistened paper
towels.
Step 3. Cover seeds with heavily moistened
Paper towels & place in a warm
Location.
Step 4. Spray top layer of paper towels every
Morning & night until germination.
Never allow the paper towels to dry
out!
Step 5. Plant seedlings in a small container
When stems are between 1 - 2 inches
long. Place under grow lights
Immediately.
Step 6. Transplant outdoors once nighttime
Temperatures are consistently above
55 degrees F. In colder climates, grow
them in containers.
Step 7. Two weeks after transplant,
Fertilize with nitrogen (fish emulsion)
bi-weekly for a healthy crop.
Thank you so very much for watching & following our journey on the homestead.

See? This is why I tell everyone about your channel. You're a born teacher. Thank you so much for taking time out of y'all's very busy lives to teach and help us all! I've learned so much from you over time, not to mention spreading positivity and confidence. ❤️🙏🌱
You could seriously start a moringa tree tea farm with all those seedlings! Holy cow! Congratulations. That is an amazing germination!
Mrs. H, I have been doing all of my seeds using the paper towel method since last year. I wet a paper towel (I squeeze out excess water) place my seeds on the paper towel and then fold and place inside of a plastic sandwich bag. This method is carefree. The plastic creates moisture. Within a week or two my seeds germinated depending of course on the seed. The ones that haven’t, it’s no biggie. At least I know before hand how many are ready to be planted. I’ve done the marketmore cucumber seeds, celery seeds, brandy wine tomatoe seeds that I got from you. They are doing great!
The only challenge that I had was with the celery seeds becuz they are so tiny but I got them planted. I’ve only been gardening for about 3 years now and just beginning to feel comfortable planting seeds in the house and learning how to adjust my light as the seed germinates and starts growing. Thanks for your wonderful videos. Will be 74 this year and still learning! I love it 😊
Do we need to wet the towel after it dries out?
Thank you very much because now I know I have a friend that love gardening and is smart about and forever learning like me and have wisdom in what you doing. I thank Daddy God for you and your family and God bless you and your family amen
OMG, i just ordered some moringa seeds, after researching herbs and plants for their medicinal purposes. Although I am up in years, I have received a feeling, calling, urge to get to eating home grown vegetables, herbs and using plants that i can for as many purposes as i can. I have been researching the moringa tree and in some research it is said the plant has 9 x more protein than yogurt, 10 x more vitamin A than carrots, 7 x more vitamin C than oranges, 17 x more calcium than milk, 15 x more potassium than banana s and 25 more iron than spinach. Although when used in a tea it is decaffeinated, it will give you increased energy too. So, it is a blessing for me that all of a sudden your channel came up for me. I was also researching best way to plant potatoes so, your channel is truly a blessing for me today. I will continue to watch your channel, thank you.
I've been sticking cuttings in the ground to get more moringa and it works like magic. This spring I tried seeds but didn't know I needed to soak them first. I've had 4 out of 20 germinate and it's been almost 4 weeks! The seed starting mix has been kept damp but it's been sorry rate to grow. I'm going back to clipping a branch and sticking it in the ground. It is an amazing food and I love to pull off a branch's leaves and add them to a sandwich. Not much taste (if any) but packed with power! Love it. I dried leaves to powder and put into jell forms for vitamin supplements.I'm so thankful that you did this experiment and I learned how to sprout the few seeds I still have. YEA! Great information.
Great video! Next time you germinate moringa, try soaking for 1 day and take a sharp knife and gently cut off a little of the husk, not cutting into the seed, to expose the seed. This will leave a small opening for the sprout to come out.
This video is right on time! I am sitting at my table with Moringa seeds in front of me, wondering how to start them. Thank you so much for saving me a lot of anxiety 😉. Blessings to you and Mr. H✌🏾💜🙏🏾
We have been growing Moringa for years. My wife is from the Philippines. Your seeds need to be no older than two years. Just put the seeds in a damp paper towel and place in a zip lock baggie leaving about a 1/4 " open for air flow. No need to soak them. You should see roots in less than 3 days if seeds are healthy. We then just put them in their final container that is a 15 gallon pot.
Mrs. Heart, I used to grow moringa you've done a great job I'm starting them. Here's the thing about moringa tree they don't like their root bulb to be wet they prefer dryer soil. They can dry up in a drought for up to three years then as soon as it rains or they get watered they will start growing again. They can survive in temperatures down to 25° overnight and I've had mine survived down to 18 degrees for just a few hours.
Thank you! Saved me some mistakes. Would love to see more videos on the process as they mature.
Thank you Mrs H for this video. I'm starting some moringa seeds today and came back here for reference. Where do you keep them while they're germinating and before they go outside? Would you share a video of your germination area? Thank you again. Have a blessed day. 🥰
Thank you for doing this! I'll be starting mine this way this year. Last year I had such slow germination..one of them that I'd forgotten about didn't pop up until at least 2 months later!
Thank YOU! What a blessing you are for SO MANY PEOPLE! I bought some Moringa from Lead & Lady Lead & these little guys are not cheap so this is such a valuable germination lesson! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome!
I found a cheap source of moringa seeds at an Indian Market. I buy 7 ounce bags for $4. They sell them for snacks. They all germinate. Save money.
My husband used to drink moringa for nutrition for cancer .
Love your experiments, they are set up scientific and I learn from you. Thank you so 💓 much. 🐘🙏🙌✌️🙂🕊👍
I love your channel, girl. You've taught me so many things from canning to growing and living on the homestead. The question I had was when is it ok to plant them in the ground and where is the best place? Full sun? Partial? We're in Tennessee, do you think they'll survive the winter here or are they plants that need to be taken in in the winter?
Thank you!!! Just awesome! It's called the miracle tree. From what I've read
.... there's only one moringa...no other variety. Be blessed in the name of Jesus!
You go Lady....Imma do it that way next time. Whoa! I'm so proud of you. 🤛🏾🙌🏾
Mrs H, I canned your hearty red beans today. 10 pints! Had enough left in the pot to have for supper. Just cooked them a bit longer and made rice and cornbread. Delicious!
I have tried multiple ways for germination. Yours is the most easiest and most fruitful.
When I tried, except floaters all Moringa seeds germinated. I live in New Jersey and its July. It took only 6 days for all of them to germinate.
Thanks for showing the way. :)
Dear Homestead, Hart, I’d like to take this opportunity. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge I have learned so much between you and Matt farmer 73 I’ve learned can I learn to make of the things that I need I’ve learned to prepare bug out bucket some bags I just wanna say God bless you so much for all the knowledge you share.❤
Thank you for this video!! It saved 60+ seeds! I did 13 the way you said didn't take, none of my 13 did either. However, the tray and all you did, I did too, w 60+ seeds, they are ALL thriving in DAYs not weeks. Ty again. ❤
Amazing informative process. Thank you 🙏
There's Moringa Oleifera n Stenopatala. And more varieties within those two names.
U're the first person to talk about temperatures. I covered mine when we got into the 40s, but I should have done it in the 50s. I'm ready for the next batch. 🙏 Thanks
This a beautiful germination of moringa. I'm curious to know your plans for growing that many trees. I live in Florida. There is a major market for growing moringa and it is very profitable. God bless. I am new to channel and I love it. Further homesteader.
I soak moringa seeds in lukewarm water for 12 to 24 hours and then plant one inch deep in soil. I get at least 80% germination rate, averaging 18 to 21 days. Some take longer but sprout. If the weather is cool, I use bottom heat (an old heating pad on low under plastic and a towel.
21 days is an AVERAGE, so there is nothing wrong if some take longer. Not every baby is born at exactly 9 months either. Be patient.
I have just been given mornings seeds and can’t wait to plant them. Now I know what to do that will work. Thank you.
Is there a variety of moringa that would be winter tolerant?! I’m in Oklahoma and would love to grow some moringa. Has anyone had any experience with this in zone7?
Hi. I'm in New Jersey, zone 7A. I plant moringa oleifera PKM1. I had one moringa tree planted in the ground on the side of my house 2 years ago, and it came back up from the roots the following spring. I wasn't expecting that! It wasn't the warmest or sunniest spot on my property so I was thinking maybe there was just enough rain over the winter to keep that tap root alive and unfrozen. Last fall, I left two six foot moringa trees in the ground in a different spot by my back fence and I can't wait to see if those come back up this spring.
I’m in zone 7B in NC. I prune them twice a season (eating or dehydrating the pruning) to keep them small enough to bring inside. My house is small with one south window, but they survive. You cannot leave them outside. They are tropical.
EXCELLENT EXCELLENT video!! 1st question, where do you get Moringa Seeds to plant that don't cost a small fortune?? I have been reading up on the health benefits of Moringa and have GOT to get some. I'm in grow zone 8b (coastal AL) and have heard that if you cut the stalk back before winter & MULCH HEAVILY that they will come back from the roots. They may not flower or produce the seed pods but at least we can have the benefits from the leaves. I've also heard that you can hang the leaves on the branches upside down (in bunches) and they dry well. Are you going to do a video on the benefits & how you use the Moringa? I've heard some people put them in the gel caps to take as pills.
An Indian Market. They sell them as snack food. I buy 7 ounce bags for $4, and they sprout beautifully. Cheap! I prune them twice a season and freeze for smoothies or powder in a dehydrator.
Ms H I would like to share a plant with you called leaf of life a very important plant to have please research
You may have the Rakta variety of Moringa.❤
Shyama- black variety (most common),
Shveta- white variety and.
Rakta- red variety. It is also called as Madhu shigru.
Homestead Sweet-Heart! Enjoying your presentations. Thanks from Nebraska.
I was just about to soak my moringa seeds today & I found this. Im so happy you shared this. Thank you, neighbor.
Wow thank you! I just put moringa seeds in the dirt yesterday and will be getting them back out shortly.
Wonderfully done Mrs. H. Thank you for helping us out!
Isn't it exciting to see how easy it can be. To open your mind to possibilities. I'm going to try your technique. Have a blessed day.
It gets 120° where I live in SoCal and they thrive here
Thank you so VERY much...the temperature sure makes a difference... can't say I've ever seen that...taught me something today, thank you!
Nothing like the feeling of seeing seedlings come up totally love it
Thank you for sharing. I found your Moringa videos just in time as I was about to start my Moringa seeds. Thanks for the written instructions.
Mrs. H you are doing a Great Job starting your Moringa Trees and thanks for sharing your experience, ideas and advice! Peace and Blessings to you and Mr. H. 👍🙏❤
Makes me want to start all my seeds this way, at least you can see the progress. Nothing worse than taking the time to plant in pots and nothing comes up. I am waiting on my tomatoes now wondering if I am going to have to buy the plants if they don't come up. I have growing lights and a mini greenhouse inside to start seeds. We shall see.
I love how you began with the coffee comment, you have my heart ❤
Once the trees are stable they can tolerate cooler temperatures? I am in Alabama, have seeds on the way. They just go dormant in the winter?
Your trees look amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. I have a thought though I was looking at some other videos and they don’t cover what you cover but they cover some other information about the moringa trees and I have a thought that you may like to hear if your starter pots are deeper it may be 4 to 5 inch deeper, perhaps they’ll grow better and stronger because I’ve come to find out that moringa trees have an extremely long taproot. Let me know what you think and also can you let me know about getting the loofah seeds I’m going to start my moringa like you didn’t see what happens but I’d like to find out love to Homestead heart and family. God bless you guys I love you bye
Hi, where did you leave the morninga seeds? Temperature makes a big difference, Ty
That's great! I wonder if you can do other seeds like that? 🤔
Mrs H. Thank you ma'am for sharing me how to start moringa seeds, this channel is wonderful 😊 ❤️
Thank you so much for all the info and blessings you bring!!
You are so encouraging!!
Enjoy all of your videos I have learned so much from you! Many blessings to you & your family.
I think the red stem is the dwarf variety.
Man! You are so adorable 😍 I love watching your happy videos and so do my kids!
Thank you, you are so he first person to answer my question…
When to plant my My Moringa Tree 🙂
Giving this a try! I just placed my moringa seeds onto wet paper towels after soaking them for 24 hours. Last year I had NO luck with getting any of my little plants to thrive, and only a few of the seeds even germinated when planted the traditional way directly into a pot. Fingers crossed! Thank you for sharing your success!
Thank you! I've had my seeds for quite awhile, been hesitating getting them started. Zone 6b.
I will be planting them in ex lg pots and bringing them inside during the cold
Hi, we are also in zone 6 b. I planted 6 Moringa seeds about a month ago. Only 1 has sprouted so far. Should I keep the soil moist or let it dry out between watering? Surely don't want to it to rot.
Yes, large pots. Roots grow deep and don’t like to be disturbed.
🎉🎉🎉thank you watching from 🇿🇦 and I love the video
A very helpful video. I live in the Arizona desert and I would love a moringa tree.
Do you have to soak the seeds before putting em on saturated paper towel?
I would soak them overnight. Tfw
Thanks for showing how to germinate moringa 😅 seeds great video
Honey every thing yu said and is still saying is coming true thank you for sharing all yur tips and survival tips your a Doll
Hi What kind of tray is it? Does it have holes on the bottom? Does it matter what I use? Any flat surface? Thank you!
I would love to get more details on Moringa trees. How do you keep them when it gets cold?
I prune them and bring indoors in Ag Zone 7B . They will freeze outside. They need sunlight indoors, so I have to prune them smaller for my small space. I freeze or dehydrate the pruning.
Seeds growing under paper towel is fantastic. Even I can do this❤️
Hey @homesteadheart, I was wondering where you got your seed tray and seedling pots from?
I thought you might like this prayer....
Loving Father,
Help us to remember the birth of Jesus that we may share in the songs of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and the worship of the wise men.
Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world.
Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teaches us to be merry with clear hearts.
May the morning make us happy
to be Thy children, and the evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, in Jesus' name, Amen and Amen.
So amazing that you dropped this vid. I bought moringa seeds and was talking to my Son about this 2 days ago. Thanks HH 😊
I spend most mornings looking for my coffee too 😂
I soaked my seeds over night. Place the seeds in a Tupperware container with a wet paper towel ( used some of the water that the seeds soaked in to wet the paper towel) covered the container with the top and within 10 days,7 seeds germinate. Now, do I plant them individually in pots?
Can I plant 2 in a pot until they get a little bigger 🤔
Help....
Thanks sis. for sharing your experiment. Starting mine with this method also.
You are 2 🥰 cute!! Thank you for sharing your stuff!!
HELLO I PRAY 🙏🏽 ALL ARE WELL WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY I WAS WONDERING WHERE DO YOU BUY THE MORINGA SEEDS?🤔THANKS👍🏽GOD BLESS YOU AND I APPRECIATE YOU SHARING YOUR PLANTS ☘️ AND YOUR TIME STEP BY STEP HOW YOU GROW AND HOW YOU CARE FOR YOUR PLANTS I WANT TO GROW VEGETABLES IN MY APT.IF POSSIBLE SOMETHING SMALL AND I NEED ALL THE KNOWLEDGE HOW TO GO ABOUT IT I LOVE YOU GOD BLESS YOU 🙏🏽AND EVERYONE HAVE A BLESS SAFE STAY ENCOURAGE 🙏🏽
I wonder if the red stem are male plants.
Thanks, this proves that a seasoned gardener like me kann learn something from you. Great experiment with the husk of. ❣
Ohh WOW thanks for sharing this knowledge with us, it's much appreciated ☺️💕
I planted Moringa seeds in Solo cups. They came up and grew very tall 6-10 inches with double sets of leaves. I tried to transplant them to a permanent larger pot. The stems are so delicate once they get that tall. It’s difficult to even tie them for support.
Yes, their “trunks” are weak when young. The roots do not like to be disturbed and need deep pots. I would not plant in something shallow like Solo cups.
Tried this last year that method works very well for me too
Hi, where did you leave them, in a dark boiler room or window sill and at what temperature?
Beautiful, I am going to try growing avocados. Even if I get beautiful flowers, I will be happy
You are so cute and funny. Thanks for sharing your tutorials. I do have a question, i have harvested my moringa pods from last year and i would like to know if those are still good to plant moringa cuz i lost all my matured trees from frost. Yes i cut them done thinking it is safe already and here comes the frost. I am from Jacksonville fl. Your input is appreciated.
Hi. This is a wonderful video. Could you please let me know where you left the tray and at what temperatures in order for them all to germinate?
Dark boiler room or window sill? I am struggling with getminating moringa seeds at the moment in the uk.
When planted this way, the moringa has a very weak stem in the first few weeks. Soon I will share a video I made about this experiment.
I germinated several seeds using your method and will soon have to put them in pots. Trusting they will grow to decent size trees to harvest lots of foliage.
Someone please please tell me where to get moringa seeds that actually will germinate. Last ones I purchased were from Amazon. They were garbage.

I buy mine at a local Indian Market that sells them for snack food, so they are fresh! A 7 ounce bag is $4. Cheap. Great germination rate!
I have subscribed after watching this video. Do you have a link to the previous video if there is one on sowing moringa seeds?
About the red stems: (I don't know for sure but) more color usually means more nutrients :)
Tomatoes, you almost have nothing to do to germinate them. I keep a plate in which I throw coffee grind. From time to time, I throw tomato seeds there from fresh tomatoes, then spray the grind in my garden as fertiliser. I got plenty of tomato plants growing and good ones.
Great information! Thank you for sharing, I've learned something new. 🥰
Do you have a follow up video on how you planted the moringa trees. Thanks….
I took an extra measure to protect my little moringa seedlings just cut out the bottom of 1 gallon plastic jugs and that has protected thru the night then they can get a good start warmer during daylight uncovered 👍
Thank you for sharing what you;'ve learned thus far. My first attempt looked like a green stick.I just tried 2 more. Misted daily as well. Once they germinated, they grew leaves in about a week to two weeks. I let them sit outside one evening thinking 58 degrees is fine...One of them looks a little limp like the the leaves want to curl inward. Just slightly. I quickly put them back indoors under grow lights the way I had them. Thanks for the tips! I may start one more just in case. GA zone 8a,
Fantastic video Sis. I will germinate all my moringa seeds just as you advised. Peace and blessings to you and the family.
Awesome update on your Moringas!!! I use this in my natural hair products ingredients. Happy growing!❤
That is a lot of seeds you've germinated. How many trees are you planning on having at the end? just one or many?
Homestead Heart thanks . I tried without any success, but now I know what to do .
Put a little food grade hydrogen peroxide in the spray bottle and spray twice daily that will kill off the mold
Lol, 😂you sound like me everyday…. Where’s my coffee?
Wow maybe I will be that good someday 😢I keep trying 3 yrs now
Good afternoon I love your channel I have a question where can I find moringa seeds
Hi, and thanks for the great video. Do you have any moringa seeds for sale?
That was a cool experiment, great outcome. Thanks for sharing.
Blessings
