Steps:

Cut or break off the leaves from the fruit by hand. Then, using a knife, remove the shoots at their base, as illustrated in the picture.

Place the leaves in a glass of water, ensuring that only the shoots come into contact with the liquid. Position the glass on a sunny windowsill.

Maintain this setup for 20-30 days until you observe the emergence of fresh shoots. Once this occurs, plant the shoots in pots, position them in a sunny location, and water them at least once a week.

If the soil dries out sooner, additional watering 2-3 times may be necessary. Be prepared for a waiting period of 1-2 years before the plant begins to bear fruit, so exercise patience throughout the process.
