Editing Artocarpus sericicarpus (section)

== Propagation ==

Sow seed fresh. Pedalai seed is described as germinating immediately and losing viability when desiccated; a genus treatment likewise emphasizes immediate sowing of seed that cannot withstand drying. <sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup> A species account gives 24–27 °C as the best germination range and lists root cuttings and air layering as additional methods. <sup id="cite_ref-5">[[#cite_note-5|[5]]]</sup> These temperatures and vegetative methods are useful starting parameters, not a guarantee of uniform germination or rooting.

In a controlled glasshouse experiment, breadfruit scions grafted onto pedalai seedlings survived in 3 of 32 attempts, or 9%, after four months. <sup>[[#cite_note-5|[5]]]</sup> That result concerns pedalai as an interspecific rootstock for breadfruit; it should not be read as a tested method for propagating pedalai itself.
