Fresh Cacao Seeds for Planting - Wet Cocoa Seeds - Make Chocolate, Great as Bonsai (4 Seeds)

First eight seeds failed to sprout and rotted. They replace eight seeds which also failed to sprout and rotted. Fortunately Amazon credited my purchase cost. Will never buy seeds from CZ LLC in the future.

UPDATE 6/19/22 Heat is for sure the key. The seeds did end up sprouting but when I moved them inside for the winter they did struggle in a cooler basement. I've ordered the same seeds off Etsy sellers and they have sprouted no problem with the use of a heating mat...If you want these to sprout, get a heating mat. So, I’ve ordered this twice…And, after talking to them about the issues with the seeds, they sent another couple seeds for me. I believe I know as to why the seeds are not sprouting for many. I was guilty of it on my first round. These seeds are not like any other seeds. They NEED heat. If they get too cold, they rot. I’ve found that out after researching videos. They’re local to hot and humid places. I assume many are ordering in places that are not an ideal location. My second round is under a 25 watt red reptile lamp in a terrarium. I don’t have a heating mat, so that is the best I could do when I received them. Will this work? I don’t know, but it’s atleast getting heat at around 80 degrees. I’ve giving this one last shot and calling in the towel. They did come wet with the white skin on them(which is good, if they dry, they are not viable) and also came with a little bit of root. So, who knows. I’ll update if something happens.

I ordered this item TWICE and BOTH times the seeds arrived soaking wet in the white flesh of the fruit, stinky of yeast activity with package BALLOONING from CO2 production. DO NOT ORDER THESE. I thought the first delivery I would try to plant them anyways so I scraped the white flesh off and planted them in my most tropical soil mix I have ever made and gave it excellent sprouting conditions from a collection of correllating information from a set of research papers... they all failed to sprout and upon analysis they were fermented into unroasted chocolate. The second order was even worse condition when delivered. I STRONGLY suspect this is the desired outcome of the company selling these items and wont even try to argue with them, I dont feel like arguing with scammer gaslighting profiteers who send bad seeds because they themselves are bad seeds. I can't handle being told "its your fault they arrived in that condition". Everything I have purchased from CZ seeds has been subpar or non-viable

Very healthy, good quality, the moisture leve great, beauty, it's also a germination.

Was not sent viable seeds. Reached out to company and they could care less. Do not purchase. Poor quality Not healthy No plant

Purchased 2 times thought the first time I done something wrong so I ordered again. Months down the road no seed came up

My seeds never sprouted. I followed directions with no sprouting

The goods arrived in very good order very well packaged. It came with planting instructions. I have planted he seeds and now I am waiting for them to germinate.
