Manihot esculenta, also known as cassava or yuca, is a starchy root vegetable that is a major food source in many tropical regions of the world. It is native to South America and is now cultivated worldwide in tropical and subtropical regions. The cassava plant has large leaves and grows tall, reaching up to 9-14 ft in height. The roots of the cassava plant are harvested and can be eaten boiled, fried, or mashed, and are also used to make flour and tapioca. Cassava is a staple food in many countries and is an important source of carbohydrates in the diet.
SOAK: Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to help with germination.
SOW: Fill a seed tray or small pots with well-draining potting soil. Plant the cassava seeds about 1 inch deep in the soil, spacing them 2 to 3 inches apart.
WATER & LIGHT: Water the seeds gently, being careful not to disturb them. Place the seed tray or pots in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight.
GERMINATION: Seedlings should start to emerge within 1 to 3 weeks.
TRANSPLANT: Once the seedlings have grown to about 6 inches tall and have developed several leaves, they can be transplanted into larger pots or directly into the garden. Make sure to choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil.
