How to Propagate Potatotree?
(Solanum erianthum)
Potatotree, also known as Wild tobacco tree, Velvet nightshade
Potatotree thrives well when propagated through sowing. To start, select healthy seeds from mature fruits. Before sowing, treat the seeds with a fungicide to prevent damping-off diseases, which ensures stronger seedlings. Use a well-drained seed starting mix and maintain consistent moisture without overwatering. Germination can be expected in a warm and humid environment. Once the seedlings are sturdy enough, they can be transplanted to individual pots or their permanent location ensuring adequate space for growth.
