College kid from philly here, I had heard I could pick up a Bonsai growing kit at a local retail store (urban Outfitters). I purchased a Japanese Red Maple Kit. I've always been interested in the art of bonsai, and want to use this art to further my understanding of zen. Currently I'm living in a dorm and my seeds are in a germination phase. The kit states that the seeds need to spends 8-12 weeks in the fridge set to 40 degrees Fahrenheit. I am doing this but I want to ensure that this manipulated wintering process will produce sprouting. Are there any other techniques I can use? I'm interested in looking into other trees to grow in the meantime, what are other good beginner trees? Also are there certain sites i should stay away from for getting seeds and equipment, and some great one a lot of you guys use?
Sorry for all the Questions. I really love the idea of controlling the growth of my own tree and I want to be able to stick out the growth process and have a beautiful tree of my own.
Cheers,
Haze
