I could not get a single one to germinate. And this was from several different shipments of cupuacu. So i think there is certainly some improvement needed just on handling of this one particular species.This is nailing''''

Why don't you let Ricardo respond and he can say whether he feels "nailed" by me, instead of putting words into his mouth?

Oscar is a very good friend, and I am fruitlovers.com fan, of course he don't " nailed "
I begun my first experiences with exotic and tropical fruits some years ago through Oscar's website,
Coincidentally, Today , I bought seeds Garcinia prainiana from fruitlovers.com
Of course, we are dealing with tropical seeds, some species have good rate germination, others have worst rate germination,
Cupuaçu is a good example for a 0% rate germination

Ricardo I think many foreigners do not understand our difficulties here in Brazil, we have endemic plants, cupuaçu, will only very well there on amazon, I even have this tree bearing fruit here in southeastern Brazil, but how many plants I've lost before, I do not like not to remember.
have other hard trees to adapt outside their biome nature, type, umbu, bacuri, mangaba, Mucambo, Pajura, oiti coró, bahia of oiti, gizzard mutum, ie endemic plants, are difficult to move within Brazil, imagine sending abroad, with time customs, different temperatures ...
I think that plant collectors should be persevering, and get used to the losses, if it was easy everyone would have these trees in the backyard.
How many baccaureas, durian, marang, champedaque, mangosteen, rambutans, in my early cultivation I lost. But do not give up. Just missing catechize the durians. 8)
I'm positioning myself on your subject's friend poland but it is only a reflection.
I think this post should be locked to new posts.
