The following steps will help you to grow grapes through seeds. Selection Of Seeds: There are many varieties of grapes. We should grow grapes according to our purpose, such as to make jam or for fruits, etc. So you need to choose your goal and then choose the grape seeds accordingly.

Prepare The Seeds: First, wash the seeds thoroughly so that the seed pulp gets separated from the seeds. Press the seeds hard to check if they are healthy. If the seed does not break, it is a healthy seed. Then soak the seeds or wrap them in a wet towel and refrigerate. After 3 months, the seeds will be ready for planting. Prepare The Soil: Before sowing the seeds you should prepare the soil. Check the pH of the soil. Add important nutrients. If you have sandy and rocky soils, you should add some fertilizer (manure, compost, coco peat, and peat moss). If you are a beginner, you should just mix equal parts of compost and gardening soil and use that mixture. Or you can learn how to make your own potting soil to sow seeds. Sow The Seeds: Fill the prepared soil into pots and containers, then sow the seeds in the pots at a distance of 2 inches. Cover them with a thin layer of the same soil. Give them water. Keep the seeds at a high temperature so that they can germinate quickly. You can also keep them in the greenhouse to provide the temperature. When the upper surface of the pot is dry give them water again. Transplant Plants: Grape seeds will germinate in 3-7 weeks depending on the variety. When the plants grow up to 3 inches, transfer them to big pots or in your garden soil. Plant the seedlings 6 to 8 feet apart. Add some fertilizer and use mulch. Keep your pots in a place where sunlight is optimum (at least 6-8 hours a day). Read More How To Grow Tamarind From Seeds?How To Grow Jackfruit From Seeds?How To Grow Apricot Tree From Seed?
