Namaste!
Just a few days ago, while scrolling on Instagram, I came across a short video that showed an almond tree. To be honest, that was the first time I saw an almond tree, that too with lots of blooming flowers, and that feeling was like love at first sight for me. ๐
You may not find this something different or special, as I am often in a hangover of such loving feelings towards plants, but believe me, this feeling was something different.
OKAY, wait a minute and open your web browser and search 'Almond Blossom' Now click on the IMAGE section and See The Magic! ๐ฅฐ
I don't know if you already knew that almond blossoms look just as mesmerizing as cherry blossoms. Now maybe you can understand my eagerness to grow an almond tree that too with almond at home.
Although this is not a condition, I just like to grow plants from seeds as much as possible. So after watching that video on Instagram, with heart in my eyes,๐ I reached YouTube to take lessons on growing almonds at home. Many people shared different ways to sprout almonds since this was my first time so I planned to try a few of those methods. Let's see those methods.
First of all, I separated some almonds of different sizes. There was no specific reason behind taking different sizes, I just wanted to keep a different variety from my side.
Now, according to a method, the first step was to wet a tissue paper a little with hand and wrap the dry almonds in it.
So I did the same and along with putting the almonds on the tissue paper, I also put 2 small cinnamon sticks in it so that they do not get any kind of fungus.
In the second step, I had to put that in a container, cover the almonds with the other side of the paper, and put a lid on it.
And the last step was to place this container in your refrigerator. Well, I don't know the reason for this, but probably the temperature of the refrigerator would be the best for the germination of almond seeds and since this was the last and most important part of this method, so for now, I just follow the steps.
According to another method, I soaked a few almonds for about 18 hours after which they had to be taken out and prepared for germination in 2 different ways.
Here you can see the difference in their shape and size and 18 hours deep dive. However, I am going to use only 2 of these and I will soak the remaining one in water again as it has to be put for germination after soaking for about 36 to 48 hours.
For the second method, I have taken a small seed-growing cup and filled it with a mix of sand, coco peat, and garden soil.
After this, with the pointed side of the almond facing downwards, I planted it about halfway in the soil and poured a few drops of water on top. This is important because the seed was already in water for 18 hours, so now very little water will be poured into the soil.
After which I covered this tiny cup with cling wrap and placed it near the kitchen window.
According to the third method, I wrapped the seeds soaked in water for 18 hours in normal dry paper and without adding even a drop of water, closed them in a container and kept them near the same kitchen window.
Now these seeds will hopefully germinate in the next 10 to 15 days and even if they don't, I will give you a complete update on this in another blog. Because we have to keep trying until we learn! โ๐ผ

Good morning Mr. @untilwelearn
almond trees are beautiful, their flowers are captivating, so it is not strange to me that you wanted to plant these seeds
I wish you much success
This is truly a plant that has very beautiful flowers. Hopefully the seeds you plant will grow well and produce charming flowers. Where I live there is no such plant. You are lucky to have it.
It actually has very beautiful flowers and that is the main reason I am excited to grow Almonds. They can grow anywhere as far as I know, all you need is a mild climate. Thanks for your wishes!๐๐
I hope the seeds will grow wellโฆ ๐ฑ๐ชด
I hope the same :) I will update all of you with whatever results! Thanks for your wishes๐
You are welcome ๐
Great, looking forward to it!

Arre Bhai Diwali wale bhi chalenge aur sasuraal wale bhi chalenge๐ bas saabut badaam hone chahiye. Haan Mera ho gaya to kaafi doubts clear ho jayenge phir agli baar ugana easy hoga.
Hahaha, Bhai Diwali wale se kaam chala lunga. Sasuraal mein abhi pahle jaise khatir daari nahi. ๐๐
Haan ab to wahan bas biwi ke driver wali si value reh gayi hai..๐ Diwali wale hi sahi rahenge. Main batata hoon mere trial ki growth ke bare mein.๐ค๐ผ
๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ No comments bhai.
I actually never realized they could reproduce like that, that plant has beautiful flowers. I'll have to find out how tall it grows. Regards @untilwelearn
Isn't this an amazing feeling..๐ฅฐ We have always been eating almonds but never paid attention to what its plant looks like; it is really beautiful๐ธ
Yes, it is, the next time I have an almond in my hands I promise to germinate it.

I didn't know that we can grow almonds at our place of living. Interesting.
It's fantastic work, brother. Best of luck. I hope that your efforts pay off.
This is a completely new thing for me too that almonds can be grown at home also that they bloom such beautiful flowers and since then I am very excited to plant it myself. Thanks for your wishes brother!๐
Let me know when it starts sprouting!
I will create an updated blog about its growth and will tell you all about it! :)

I had no idea it was possible to plant almonds this way, but now that I see it I want to give this a try. I love love LOVE almond blossoms. They add so much cheer to the end of winter/beginning of spring.
Seriously I could never imagine that almond flowers could look so beautiful. If my method is successful, I will make a detailed blog on this.
