Coffee bean seedling cultivation: a wonderful journey from seeds to green leaves!

Coffee beans are a widely consumed beverage, but have you ever wondered how they grow? From seed to green leaf, coffee beans go through a fascinating journey.

First, we need the right soil and climate conditions. Coffee plants usually grow at high altitudes because these places have the right temperature and humidity. Of course, coffee trees can also be grown at low altitudes, but their quality may be affected.

Next is the sowing stage. Farmers will take out the core part of the peeled and dried coffee fruit, which is what we call "seeds", which are the common coffee beans. These seeds are placed in seedling trays or seedling boxes and covered with a thin layer of soil.

Over time, the incubation begins. By maintaining the right temperature and humidity, and providing enough sunlight, these tiny seeds begin to sprout and extend roots and stems.

When the seedlings reach a certain height (usually 6-8 weeks), they are transplanted into larger containers for better development. This process requires carefully removing the seedlings from the seedling tray or seedling box and placing their roots into new soil.

In the right environment, coffee trees will continue to grow and form branches. When they reach a certain height (usually 1-2 years old), farmers can begin pruning and managing the coffee trees to promote better yields and quality.

Finally, after several years of hard work and patience, the coffee trees begin to bloom. These white flowers emit a light fragrance and attract insects such as bees to pollinate. As the fertilized eggs develop into fruits, in a few months, the red, yellow or purple coffee cherries will mature.

Once the fruits are ripe, farmers can pick them, and they carefully choose the right time to pick them, making sure to only select fully ripe and full-colored fruits.

Finally, after processing and roasting, coffee beans finally become what we are familiar with. From seeds to green leaves, coffee beans go through an amazing journey. This process requires patience and expertise to ensure the quality of the final coffee.
