Title: Re: [NAFEX] Jujube Seeds

Roger Meyer of the California Rare Fruit Growers (www.crfg.org) has a book about jujubes that includes information on how to grow them from seed.  They have a twin embryo and if you look you will see a seam on the seed.  Take a knife and carefully press down on that and it will split.  Then put the seed between wet paper and keep it in a warm place until you see root sprouts.  Then pot them up.
