Anyone want a purple mangosteen seed for cheap?
« on: November 15, 2022, 08:05:58 PM »
I found a lot of purple mangosteens at the store and it saddens me how elusive this fruit is on the forums. If anyone wants to pay $5 a seed + $4 shipping, I'll go to the store tomorrow and ship it to you in moist soil <3 much love

If you want to trade a seed for something, PM me!

That's nice of you. Just a note, most of the times they are irradiated which can affect seed germination. Still doesn't hurt to try. Also check to see the source it might say if they were or not.

oh wow. I had no idea, I got 5 that I just planted after soaking for 36h. Guess we'll see how this goes, damn. I've already thrown away the packaging but I'll check the next time I go, fingers crossed

You think $5/seed is cheap? So generous of you to do this out of the goodness of your heart...

Ay bro, The post literally 3 links down has them sold out for $8, tradewinds sells them for $7. So yes. Yes I do.

edit: I'm not going to the store and shipping you a seed with pulp left on it, I'm running in under water, drying them, very delicately removing the hairy seed membrane... it's not like lemons where you get to just pop them out and plant. Was a decent amount of work to just get the 5 seeds out of the husks.

Yall, am I tripping? I'll hear y'all out, I can admit when I'm wrong, fr thought this price is cheap asf...
