If you want to see in your greenhouse not only ornamental indoor plants, but also exotic ones that also bear fruit, then try growing kiwi at home, especially since it belongs to unpretentious plants.
Another name for kiwi is the Chinese gooseberry. Kiwi is a fruiting vine. To get the seeds, you must select a ripe kiwi fruit that has no visible damage to the fruit or skin. Cut the kiwi into several pieces and gently knead the pulp, removing the bulk of it. Transfer the remaining pulp with seeds to a glass and add water. Rinse several times to leave the seeds alone. The less pulp remains, the better, this will protect the seeds from putrefactive processes. Put the carefully washed seeds on a dry napkin or gauze and let dry for several hours.
To germinate the seeds, you must perform the following procedure: take cotton wool and put it in a plate, put kiwi seeds on the cotton wool, and then pour boiling water. The water should be moderate so that the cotton wool is moist, otherwise the lack of moisture will destroy the seeds. Cover the plate with seeds with foil and put in the warmest and brightest place. Open the film at night. After about a week, the seeds will sprout and can be planted in a pot.
You can take ready-made soil for kiwi - for vines. It is necessary to plant sprouted seeds to a depth of about 1 cm and lightly sprinkle it with earth, then pour it with settled water at room temperature. Cover the pot with a transparent film or glass, put it in a warm and sunny place. Cover until the kiwi leaves themselves interfere. Seeds should germinate for 7-10 days with proper care, which consists only in sufficient watering and lighting. The weakest plants should be removed immediately and in the future it is necessary to thin out young shoots so that they do not interfere with each other with their wide leaves.
When the stem height reaches 12-13 cm, they should be transplanted into a separate pot and provide support for growth. In order to avoid too long vines, the tip of the stem can be cut off and then the kiwi will go wide. With sufficient care and a sunny location, kiwi bears fruit for 3-4 years.
