When the seedlings have at least four leaves, put each seedling in its own, small pot. It will need 4-5 hours of sun per day and will need water about three times per week. Watering is very important for the first six weeks since citrus trees often die from dehydration. Date pits grow best in plastic pots so that the roots never dry out. Add extra sand to the soil for a date tree.
Date trees require three hours of sun for day.
Water the tree twice a week. They re four inches long, flat, heavy, hairy, and they have a big eye at one end. In a bowl, combine water, cracked charcoal, and the mammoth seed. Soak the seed for a week to soften the tough shell. Then, in a 5 pot, plant the seed vertically with the eye pointed down in basic potting soil.
