The fruit forms roots at every point that touches moist substrate. However, as this is utilized and decomposes by the plant over time, care should be taken not to plant it too deeply to avoid hollow spaces. It is best to press it into the soil just enough so that the sprout and a little of the fruit come into contact with the moist substrate. The pot does not need to be kept too warm until it is moved outdoors.
