I planted something in these bags and what is sprouting looks like weed. Pls I want someone who is in d know to identify the plant growing in these bags before I can say what I really planted there.

I am not so sure that what I planted is what is sprouting...because on this forum was were I read some persons saying such a plant can’t be planted in a nursery...it’s best planted directly from the ground. So I really want to prove them wrong. So can a real farmer identify what is sprouting in my nursery pls?

Pics below...first pic is how it takes to sprout. Other pics are already sprouted plants.
Thank you

Wow pls I need more explanation on this variety Sir. I still have the dried seeds with me stored.

The pawpaw was so delicious that I vowed to see how I can propagate the fruit in my compound. That’s d result of it in d nursery...at first I thought it was weeds because from research I learned pawpaw seeds takes time to germinate reason why I was a bit skeptical when I saw those sprouts.


Pls more insight on this specie...duration of growth? Time of fruiting? etc


All pawpaw seeds germinate like that. If watered regularly, your first set of pawpaw seeds shud germinate within 8 to 12 days while you have 70% germination after 17 days.
It seedling germinating with the empty epicarp is as a result of the seed not initially buried deep in the nursery bag or tray so far wen it emerges to bring out it's primary leaves the empty shell follows

For best results each seed shud be in a nursing bag or pure water nylon that is perforated under to allow for drainage of excess water.
If you did the nursery on a bed then wait two weeks before transplanting into nursing bags or pure water nylon

After about 6 to 8 weeks, its ready for transplanting into the field

Harvest will depend on your maintenance practice but shud come into flowering from month 6and fruiting from month 9

I currently have over 3k red royal seedlings I will be transplanting into the field next week

Pls a pic of ur papaya farm please





there is another plant called pawpaw in the western world which is completely different from our own kind of pawpaw. So, if you want to google our own pawpaw use the word PAPAYA and no other plant will appear.
