OAK TREE From ACORN Time Lapse
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- Some acorns might require cold stratification before they will sprout. The main stem got stuck that's why it sprouted two new ones instead. And it got a bit stressed by the move from the water to the pot, but it started slowly recovering after a while.

I hope you decide to do updates on all of your tree time-lapses, I would love to see how they look in a year or two!
he most likely only keeps a few of them, couldn't imagine taking care of so many different plants at the same time
It would be cool to see a timelapse of a plant growing into a tree
@@fabiopisati5637 20 years? 😭
@@Ethan_Y23 an oak can live up to 3 or 4 hundred year iirc
@@fabiopisati5637 At our country place, there is an Oak tree that is beside our barn that was a sapling when we bought the property.
That was almost 180 years ago. It is now roughly 4 feet across!
I have seen it grow over the years from very early photographs.
I always give it a hug when I’m there!
It always impresses me just how much time and effort these very very long term time lapses take. I find it very fascinating and yet I wallow in my own laziness and it seems quite hard to break my own cycle. But I guess I should be just like this seed, get and get growing instead of sitting and watching the world pass me by. Thank you box lapse, for all the effort you put into your videos and somehow still giving us a small glimpse into the beauty of life itself.
Get you ass up and start growing!!! Stop waiting for tomorrow to start... start now
It's hard to grow if you don't have the adequate resources - light, water, proper environment, and such. Grow, but when you feel ready and have a chance to thrive.
Beautifully expressed!
North American, and trees native to cold environments, have to stratify for 30-90 days. Basically they have to stay moist, dark, and cold as shit - like below 40 degrees - for an entire winter season before they can even start to pop open and drop a root, this is what he did in the beginning with the 40 days. Be like this acorn, take a winter or 90 days of cold and calm and use it to think and plan, then crack open your shell and slowly grow out from there, taking advantage of your long planning period before hand
A small glimpse into beauty itself makes the wonder. “For knowledge is limited, where is imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution” - Albert Einstein. We should all learn and be adventurous and be an explorer.
I had planted some hazelnut trees about 5 years ago in my yard. They're finally starting to produce nuts. They're yummy. But those pesky squirrels sometimes get to many of them before me! A few days ago right outside my front door, I noticed a "weed" growing among my volunteer snapdragons. After pulling it, I noticed that it was no weed at all but it was a walnut tree!! I transplanted it into a large pot and will baby it for a year or so before planting it somewhere in my yard. I feel bad now about getting angry at the squirrels since I know it was them that brought me that walnut! They basically paid me in spades for taking some of my hazelnuts!
thats so cool!! thank you for telling :)
Lovely to see an oak! I love planting them from seeds in my garden and have 3 or 4 over 3 years old now same with a maple picked up as a seedling on my way back to college. Something about seeing things grow that will outlive you makes you feel like an achieved parent in a way. I encourage anyone to grow a tree, its free.
When can I find an acorn?
@@complexthoughts2621 it doesn’t have to be an oak, you could find anything in your neighbourhood
@@complexthoughts2621 There should be lots and lots around September, and into October. Look around the bottoms of your local oak trees -- there should be loads of them.
I'm not sure if they're common where you live, but there should be quite a few in the parks if they are.
Three oaks and a maple? I hope you have a damn big garden or someone is going to wonder where their yard went. LOL
That's what I love about nature, everything is free. She doesn't charge us for the air we breathe. But there is something almost magical about watching things grow, especially young tender plants.
I've always wanted to grow my own oak, now I know where to start 😀 The fascinating thing is that several main branches grow from one acorn. Great video!
From the info box: The main stem got stuck that's why it sprouted two new ones instead
You'd wanna cut all but one if you want it to grow big
This is white oak branch of oak family. Notice the smooth lobes.
They make beautiful bonsai trees.
unless you want bonsai, plant in a very deep pot in the fall, or, better yet, in the ground
I'm growing some oaks too, started the same but put them in a dirt pot rather quickly. Its nuts how big they get with just water and light
>it's nuts
Hahahahahahahahaha
Because of photosyntesis, plants literally feed when breathing
They extract the carbon from C02 leaving O2(oxygen) behind, that carbon is the main component of both wood and leaves
@@Genesongx it’s amazing how plants keep us alive
I have a small woodland of Oak trees which drop thousands of acorns. After watching this 2 months ago I decided to grow some saplings for friends and family. I’ve had 5/5 success all potted and sprouting 👌🏼
Thanks
I found this video after researching how an oak grows, because I found one on my dogs grave. My dog George passed away last February due to old age at 15. He was a Black Lab / Pitbull and ended up with hip problems and seizures which led to his demise. I buried him in April in my back yard in Maine and gave him a large redish marble slab lying flat on his grave mound, as his stone. I walked over to his grave yesterday and saw an acorn wedged half under his stone with a few inch high oak tree sprouting from it. Half of the acorn was in dirt with the other half exposed and clearly showing the shoot protruding from the shell. I'm a Norse Pagan and the oak tree signifies life, death, and rebirth, so it was very fitting when I discovered this. I plan to let it grow and overtake his stone eventually in the roots, for a badass look that I know George would appreciate. Thanks for the video!!
How is it now?
We have a ton of them growing around our house outside from squirrels burying then. It's really interesting to see the roots sprout in that jar, and that little first shoot grow.
I always wanted to see how an acorn turned into a tree! Thank you!
I have rewatched this video at least a dozen times and it has inspired me to sprout some live oak acorns.
I have a number of acorns in the cold right now so looking forward to this process taking place. You have made this process of science into art as well.
Thank you for this video. I will be using it in my bible study group to show how words, thoughts and ideas grow inside of us. They start as a seed - never despise the small beginnings.
A- Mother Nature must LOVE you! 😂🤣😂🤣😍😍😍
B- I'm mesmerized by how thirsty that seedling is!
C-It was so cool that it had given birth to a new tree after you transferred it to a pot.
Thank you for all you do!
Yes, it was mesmerizing watching it gulp that water!
This is one of my favourites so far. 🌱💜 You make it look so easy to grow these plants, but there’s so much that goes into it. All your time and dedication is very appreciated!
I love this channel. Brings me back to why I love my Hoyas and outdoor gardening so much.
Simply magnificent!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience with us.
Mother nature is truly amazing in Boxlapse format 💌
nature really is art,
like wow this was beautiful to watch!
Learning is an art. That’s the pinnacle of evolution and it’s versatile nature.
I just pick them up from the forest floor already sprouted. I take ones with long roots and pop them in test tube propagators. They look amazing.
Probably just the piano music, but this video brings me to tears.
Wow man…makes me appreciate the 5 little oak tree saplings we have on our property this year…
Absolutely amazing. I really appreciate all the hard work you go through for these 💚
Would love to see a part 2
Crazy cool to watch the water level in the clear bottle drop faster every time!
That’s what I was saying its amazing
What is it about this kind of music that transports me back to my earliest childhood memories? It’s just so dreamlike, like I can imagine my mother who passed away when I was 7 is with me
So interesting how the soil expands with moisture
Eyyy, what a pretty little oakcorn! 🌱
it's crazy to think that, in a hundred years, that little twig will become three thick trunks of s great tree
Omg I wanna cry. Thank you so so much
Wow, that's so impressive!
When I was a kid I brought home some acorns from an oak tree at my school and we planted a couple of them in the garden. They grew into small saplings like these with the distinctive leaf shape, but sadly didn't have enough room to become a full fledged oak tree.
wow, after 7months i thought it'd be larger,
but its still only large enough to be potted. amazing
actually it's only 60cm a year for oaks. They are slow-growers
that is honestly the cutest little oak tree I have ever seen.
I have several large oak trees in my yard. I’m definitely going to try this this year!
Thank you for using that glass jar. I want mine to turn into a tree, and watch, before the squirrels dig it out of the ground as they did last year on 5 trees!
The way that vase (?) fit the acorn was so satisfying 😩👌
Beautiful & incredible, along with music! ❤
Wow! This was the most beautiful time lapse I've ever seen.
It's amazing seeing the first few days of life for something which could live for 1000 years.
So beautiful, made me teary eyed
I was very relieved when I saw you put it in a pot. I hope you plant it in the ground at some point.
This is amazing. Thank you so much for making these videos!
Is satisfying, the cemente fits perfectly in the pot
Life is beautiful
I like it. Wish my skills with gardening were half as good as yours.
fun fact: Boxlapse always does container gardening (meaning he always gardens with pots/containers)
It was cool getting to see a tree growing like that.
I have a beautiful little Oak that's about 13 years old that I grew from an acorn. It's in a massive pot growing over the body of my dog I had for 17 years. One day I hope to find a special place to put them both in the ground. My dog died 8 years ago. I still miss her.
I didn't need to see this video, I'm constantly pulling up Willow Oak acorns that are sprouting all over my flower beds every year. I've seen all the stages!
OMG!Amazing!I can't believe we can plant Oak Tree at home.Thank you for the video!
Oak tree Yes I Remembered that.
THAT PERFECT GLASS BULB
I want em too 🫶
Planted an acorn in a little pot to see what would happen and forgot about it. About 60 days later it sprouted, and shot up for 10-20 days, then paused.
I was a bit concerned why it was not shooting up any more so I looked up this video, and it does exactly the same thing. I expected after a year it would be about as tall as me, but apparently not!
The way water and light is converted into plant is incredible.
Don't forget about the CO2. ESSENTIAL for life!
Uhm, actually they need water, light, CO2, iron, potassium, nitrogen and many more minerals to grow 🤓
I filled in a raised flower bed surrounding a tree with few hundred pounds of acorns so the squirrels could easily get to them throughout the winter now I have hundreds of trees coming up in there.
That's amazing how much water the little tree drinks each day. 👏
Accord tree is light which is covered by the dark crocodile
Aka Paddington tea with the Queen
I feel like i've just seen the first three seconds of Crocodile Dundee. Call me when you get to the "That's not an oak tree! THIS is an oak tree!" bit.
Best yet, keep the updates coming on this one
Oak trees are on another level. One acorn can grow into a massive tree, that tree then produces hundreds or even thousands of acorns. And the cycle repeats.
0:59 aww they're saying hello :)
I have an oak that's been with me all my life... I really want to gather as much acorns from it and plant them everywhere
Why did this make me emotional?
100 Years from now, that oak would have contained some of the finest Scottish whisky ever!
This is absolutely beautiful! 🙏
Beautiful nature.
I would love to know how this was done, it’s so beautiful. And everlasting if properly cared for, my great grandchildren could climb this tree.
Yes, a nice production.
Nature so beautifull and wonderfull
The king of trees!
Looove 😍 😃Nature really is a art 💖 beautiful & Thank u for shared this video !!!
Congrats for your work and effort
This is still revolutionary
So relaxing 😌
Wow I really appreciate the amount of time this took.
I got to try this.
mesmerizing as always I do hope to see this little acorn again in some years but seeing how trees are generally not great indoor plants it might not fit your current style.
Splendide !
beautiful
You made me root an avocado pit. Even tho they don’t grow were I live I wanted to try it lol 😆
They make great indoor plants. My mom rooted one and had it for years as a houseplant.
From the humble acorn, comes the mighty oak.
This is awesome~👍
Thank you for sharing this video~🤗
👍nice work
I was today-years-old when I found out there was an acorn-growing-jar and it was called an "Acorn Vase." Beautiful video, as always. I'm off to google vases. :)
😂
Quite intriguing!
That's a beginning of hundreds year old journey of the oak tree..
I had a question
What do you do with the plants after the video shoot is over.
I think he has a garden where he puts the plants
I was going to ask the same thing
he burns them.
He eats them
He probably keeps the ones like these for future videos
As always 💕 fascinating and relaxing beauty........
Thank you ❣️
Crazy how a corn can grow into that😆.
This video is absolutely beautiful thank you
Would love to see a birch timelapse. After germination they start of pretty slow, but after 1-2 months, they grow blazing fast. I'm talking abot a centimeter per day. The seeds are ready to harvest in late summer. Some seeds don't even need cold stratification, at least silver birches don't. I am speaking from experience, I have a silver birch that self seeded and germinated in late summer.
But I'm surprised about that oak tree growth! I thought that they grow more slowly,
They are slow growing after this initial 'rush'
I've heard transplanting oak trees is difficult and often fails. Would like to see how it's going after a few months if possible. Very cool TL!
It’s easy if grown in a container. The difficulty comes with replanting wild seedlings; as it’s easy to break the taproot when digging them up.
awesome time lapse
Good
Beautiful World
Awesome as always 👏🏼
That was really cool to watch!👍🏻👍🏻
Oaks should be grown in high pots like bottles,because their roots should go deep down (to find water when it' s dry, to stay deep in grounds while storms take away trees with short roots). In such way you make oak trees disabled. Or better from the very beginning to grow them in the street. ( My English us bad,I know )
Not true. I grow some as bonsai and they are doing fine in a small pot
Your talking English in USA.
Also I have a 3 Year old tree.
@@nn843 they grow up but not so strong,because in the first month of growing it' s the root that grows fast. It' s important.
@@nn843 I think you're missing the point. In a pot this is fine because it's a controlled environment. But in nature it would not survive a strong storm because the roots will have grown accustomed to receiving water directly rather than having to grow out in search of it's own water deeper in the ground.
I would love to grow an Oak tree in our province!
Just magical !!😲
