I am trying to grow out a red maple seeding that my MIL found sprouting in a crevice of her deck (usually the ones that sprout on her lawn get mowed down). It’s a hardy little thing, went from the size of a toothpick to about 1ft with so many leaves in a few months. I hope to grow it into a 20-30ft tree one day.
About a month ago someone gave me a few of those dried date things. I saved the seeds and gave them the paper towel treatment, and now they've started to grow roots. Should be a lot of fun.
I'm so glad I found your video. I just returned from Florida 3 days ago with baggies full of various palm seeds. After cleaning them up a bit and researching, I now wish I had grabbed a few seedlings that had started under the trees. Oh, well. 😂 The long process will still be fun. TFS 😊
I planted 100 Sabal Causiarum last year in various sizes of container. Seedlings develop multiple leaves regardless of container size but very deep containers yielded much bigger plants. I have 65 of them in a half barrel and they don't seem to require any elbow room to thrive.
if you pass by an Asian store, ask them if they have a coconut fruit with the husk still intact. buy a couple from them and then leave it in a bucket of water. in a couple of weeks you should see some growth. here in the tropics where it is hot and humid, we just leave it on the ground and in a short time it will germinate. have fun looking for the coconut.
I have a date palm in it's 5th year. It's struggling but not a waste yet. I love dates. I cleaned a few pits and started them. Out of 7, 1 actually made it this far along. Why I do this, I have not idea. Our winters drop into the single digits if not below. So, I cart this thing outside in June and back in as the temps start to drop in the fall.
Hello, your trees are beautiful, your videos are very useful. How old were you when you started planting trees? I planted trees when I was 10 years old. At that time, growing trees was very difficult, but thanks to your videos, I feel more confident. Thank you very much
the two foxtail palm seeds need more heat i think. the bifid seedlings seem to be archontophoenix, but what are these clover like leaved palm seedlings?
There are some plants that are approaching 2-3 years but most videos only contain about 6 months of footage. I think the covid plant is actually an entire year even tho it doesnt seem like it grew much
I'm actually growing a happy little lemon tree because if you! Sadly, I don't think it will get to fruit because I live in Canada and lemon trees like warm environments. Any tips for growing them and keeping them happy for the temperate environment they live in?
A lot of palm fruits have oxalate crystals in their fruits, especially caryota/fishtail palms (which your bright red fruits look like). The rash can be incredibly irritating (and also is why one should never eat palm fruits is unsure are edible).
It's so satisfying to see the progress of propagations. Cool video
^what they said. I love seeing these cause my plants never get past the seed stage when I try 🤣
Thanks! I love watching the footage too

Just an FYI thr ones that didn't sprout on video finally did months and months later. So don't give up on the slow ones

This is kinda how it went when I grew little oak trees
very nice!
Very interesting. I enjoy your experiments.
I have always wanted to grow a coconut palm but I’m in the Midwest so there aren’t any around. If you do get more I hope you include them!
ill look for some!

I have grown dates coconut etc from seeds yes we throw them in the ground an it takes time to grow
Im jealous of where you live! although I do enjoy cooler months
Can’t wait for the next update! ❤
Great timing, my ~10 year old parlor palm has started to flower/fruit. Hopefully it can self-pollinate.
wow amazing!

Not sure I collected them from cycads and palms so it's one or the other
Congratulations on your seeding, that is more than half year footage! Wow
Which vdo is ur longest experiment on your channel ?

The seedling are so cuute

It might be a long shot but you can make a lemon tea with thr leaves and it smells wonderful
How can you separate the plants?:)
i just yank them apart
Can u show the update on these plants plz?
There should be a video on how to grow any pine tree from seed
I can look into it!
Any updates?!!!
Someone tell me that he cook it in water to peel but i didn't test it

Can it possible to eat human
Yeah but then you will get the urge to feed again, there's an episode of its always sunny in Philadelphia that covers this topic
Yesterday I was eating it topic cover from my garden thats why im askeing
If the palm seeds float, they're not good
Increase the time !!
Use hot water frmor palm seed
I’m not waiting 4 months for a palm tree I rather go buy a baby one because the big ones are like $500 a piece lol
...the 2 Foxtails will take a long time....
Someone been skip the gym for months 😳
HEY WOAH IM GETTING BACK ON IT SOON!@!!
