What soil type is included?
Real loose premium potting soil with fibrous expansion and granular depth—not compressed coir discs. [Word Count: 15]
Open the kit to reveal real loose premium potting soil with a matte, lightweight density and granular depth. The fibrous texture expands when moistened, creating optimal air pockets for root development. Papaya seeds are small, round, and dark with a gelatinous coating. The apical meristem emerges as a pale green shoot within 14-21 days, followed by elongated cotyledon leaves that unfold rapidly in warm conditions.
Apical meristem: The growing tip of the plant where new cells form.
Cotyledon: The first leaves that emerge from a germinating seed.
Hydroscopic retention: Soil's ability to absorb and hold moisture for root uptake.
Root-bound: Condition where roots circle the container, limiting growth.
Taproot: Primary vertical root that anchors the plant and absorbs deep moisture.
