About jackfruit trees - This well behaved stately tree reaching skyward can achieve heights of 30 to 70 feet at maturity. The canopy is comprised of rich green, glossy, leather like leaves that can grow to 9 inches in length. Flowering occurs on short twigs that emerge from the trunk and large branches. The largest of all tree-borne fruits, jackfruit may grow up to 3 feet long and as large as 20 inches wide with scaled weights anywhere from 10 to 110 pounds! Jackfruit rind is yellow when ripe and is covered in numerous cone-like points. Upon ripening, unopened jackfruit emits a strong odor, while the inner pulp smells of banana and pineapples.
Location - Jackfruit Trees can be grown in all 50 states simply by bringing indoors before temps drop below 40 degrees and providing lots of light. Most tropical fruit trees like Jackfruit Trees are very fast growing and easier to maintain than domestic fruit trees. Below are a few brief tips for successful growth both indoors and out.
Planting in ground - Jackfruit Trees are fast growing and require space to stretch out, so plant your rows on 18 foot centers or for individual trees choose a location at least 10 feet from other trees or shrubs.
Planting in pot - Jackfruit Trees grow very well in containers as long as you provide an adequate size pot for root development. Select a pot 18-24 plus inches in diameter and 20 plus inches in height, with adequate drain holes. Glazed pots require far less watering than raw terracotta pots due to their porous nature.
Soil - A well draining soil is of primary importance as Jackfruit Trees roots do not like to be wet and will rot if allowed to sit in water for extended periods. A mixture of soil, sand and perlite is highly recommended for proper drainage.
Indoor light - A bright and sunny solarium or window location with a more southern exposure is best for growth and fruit production. Many customers have reported harvesting fruit from trees that live in home and patio environments.
Outdoor light - Jackfruit Trees prefer bright light and direct sun. If possible 12 hours of bright sun light is best for growth and fruit production though we have gotten remarkable results growing these trees in 30% shade year round.
Water - When watering Jackfruit Trees make sure to lightly soak the soil and then do not water again until the top 2 inches are dry. Depending on light conditions, location and foliage watering may be required weekly or daily. Be sure to not over water, mucky soil will almost always cause decay and ultimately kill the tree.
Fertilizer - It is recommended that you fertilize at the same time as you water using a time released fertilizer 8-3-9 or similar to help your Jackfruit Trees grow and produce a substantial crop. These trees are moderate feeders and may require multiple feeding during the growing season. It is important to follow the fertilizers labeled instructions as to not burn or kill the tree.
How Are Jackfruit Seeds Good For You?
The proteins and other vital micronutrients in the seeds are known to keep skin diseases at bay. And the iron the seeds contain boosts blood health and even treats anemia – which is one major concern, especially for women. What Are The Benefits Of Jackfruit Seeds?
1. Jackfruit Seeds Combat Anemia The seeds are rich in iron, which is an important component of hemoglobin. Adequate iron levels can treat anemia and prevent several blood disorders. Iron combats weakness as well, which is another bothersome symptom of anemia. Iron also increases the production of red blood cells, which, in turn, boost immunity and keep diseases at bay.
2. Improve Digestive Health Traditional medicine suggests that powdered jackfruit seeds can treat constipation and other digestive issues. The seeds are also rich sources of dietary fiber, which makes them all the more important for digestive health. Some sources say that jackfruit seeds can also be used to treat diarrhea. However, we need more research on this. Hence, talk to your doctor before using the seeds as a digestive aid.
3. Boost Vision The seeds contain vitamin A, a nutrient known to boost vision health. Deficiency of vitamin A can cause night blindness. The seeds might also prevent cataracts and macular degeneration.
4. Might Reduce Risk Of Blood Clots Though we need more research on this, according to some sources, the manganese in jackfruit seeds can regularize blood clotting.
5. Enhance Sexual Pleasure Certain sources state that the iron in the seeds can stimulate sexual pleasure. In fact, jackfruit seeds have been used in traditional Asian medicine to treat sexual disorders. The seeds can be roasted like chestnut and are considered an aphrodisiac by some experts.
6. Jackfruit Seeds Help Build Muscles The proteins in the seeds can help in building muscles. But we don’t know if they can be a replacement for your regular protein sources. You can, however, supplement your protein intake by adding jackfruit seeds to your diet.
7. Fight Wrinkles The antioxidants in jackfruit can fight the free radicals that cause premature aging, thereby reducing wrinkles. You need to grind a jackfruit seed in cold milk until you get a paste. Apply this paste to your face regularly – once or twice a day.
8. Make Your Skin Glow You can soak the seeds in some milk and honey for this purpose. Grind the ingredients until you get a paste. Apply it evenly to your face. Leave it on and allow the paste to dry completely. Wash off with lukewarm water.
9. Enhance Hair Growth This is where the vitamin A comes into the picture, again. It prevents brittle hair. The rich proteins in the seeds also promote hair health.
The iron in the seeds enhances blood circulation to the scalp, and this is another way they contribute to healthy hair. More interestingly, the seeds also help ease mental stress as they are rich in proteins and other micronutrients. This can curb hair fall – as stress is another cause of weak hair.
We have seen the benefits of jackfruit seeds. But as hard as it might seem to believe, they contain some essential nutrients we have been simply ignoring all along. And that is where we get to now.
