Coffee is the most consumed beverage in the world, and you can now grow your own! Strictly an indoor/outdoor house plant unless you live in zones 11, 12, or 13. Plants will grow in a low bush 3-5 feet tall and will not require any pruning. Coffee plants make an excellent house plant and will grow well in moderate light (3-4 hours of full sun) and can tolerate full sun just fine. They also thrive in a container. A fast grower once established. Plants will yield fruit after 3-4 years, plants will flower in April-July, and fill the house with hints of jasmine, vanilla, citrus, and sweet sugary notes. Fruit will begin green and turn deep red when ripe. Fruit can then be harvested and removed seed from the center of each berry (a cherry pitter works great for this) and the seed can be washed and set out to dry for 5-7 days before being roasted.
Coffee takes 2-6 months to germinate under great conditions. My conditions may not be 'great' enough. Ask me again in six months and I'll let you know if I have had any success!
Unsure if it was a me error or if I just got a bad batch but none sprouted, I will try again eventually and change my review if anything changes.
I grew some of the coffee seeds and I had them sprout and come up but I lost them due to this is the first time growing coffee from seeds. Practice makes perfect. I bought some other seeds and I've had great luck with them. I will continue to order more seeds from a place I trust.
None of the seeds I got for these germinated. I soaked in water for 48 hours beforehand as recommended on the seed packet and had no luck. Dug up two of the ones today after having them planted for about a week and a half with no signs of life to find them covered in mold with no growth. I will leave them a bit longer to see if there is any growth but I'm not hopeful at this point. Might try again just because they are pretty cheap seeds and I can experiment with different techniques to see if anything works better.
I tried different methods for each seed and o lost them all.
