Femal papaya tree seed viability

[gnappi]

My female trees sometimes have a few seeds inside them. I've tried to grow a dozen or so, and have yet to have any germinate. Are seeds from female trees viable?

They usually have pretty good viability in my experience. I always remove the aril or sarcotesta and rinse them and soak them in water overnight. I think its important to do. The sarcotesta inhibits germination.
