AFTER 24 HOURS I TOOK THE SEEDS OUT THE WATER AND PUT IT THE COMPOST STRAUGHT AWAY.
I WATERED IT A LITTLE AND COVERED IT WITH PLASTIC BAG, TO KEEP IT WARM.
I AM GOING TO KEEP IT IN WARM DARK PLACE FOR 2-3 WEEKS. HOPEFULLY IT WILL GERMINATE!!!:freezing:

i think the seeds which were floating wont are not going to germinate, but it would be interesting to see. bonsai'ing(how do you spell that) the tree might be difficult, being the worlds biggest tree borne fruit.

PS: were did you get the seeds.
