Ohiogrown Japanese black pine six years of fun!

I already planned on growing seeds this year and had already got seeds. But I might order a few more to do this. I’m excited!

Seed starting trays and mix!

3/2/2018: Half my seeds came from treeseeds.com and half from Sheffield seed company. I should have kept them separate but I didn’t. The seeds went into a cup of water for 24 hours and then into a zip lock bag full of jiffy seed starting mix. I didn’t have many floaters which is a good thing! I understand they do not need to be stratified but I’m hoping that it ups my success rate. So the bag is in the refrigerator till I see them starting to sprout.

3-28-2018: 72 seeds went into the seed starting trays. The rest of the seeds are still in the refrigerator for now.

I’m doing the same thing this evening, going to cut many and leave the roots on others.
Good Luck

I'm going to need some luck. I've been killing pines left and right this year.
