Growing Japanese Black Pines From Seeds

[@parengdandoystv3749]

Ayus sir ..... May paraan na ako ... Ganito pala ang pag tatanim....tank you for sharing.....

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Salamat po 😊

[@luigiluigi2098]

7 weeks to germinate thats a long wait. Great video very detailed.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

These are my first batches of seeds. The longer i did it, the more experience i got including the best time to sow. My best time ever to germinate seeds is just 2 days.

[@sandarudamsara6175]

mate can you tell me that is using heat pad and a mini greenhouse is good for thr germination? specially heat pad?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Yes you can also use heat pads. But for my seeds I'm not using any heat pads. I just plant them in the right time of the year.

[@MuhammadAlifyan]

Sorry sir if I ask, what is the planting medium for black pine seed seedlings?and when should we water the black pine seeds during planting?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

The planting method is already in the video. Once it's planted in the seedling tray, just water it once a week and place the tray in a cool bright corner. Don't put it out in the sun until the seedlings comes out

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Use the standard seed raising mix

[@sumitkanak1841]

from where u get those seeds

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

I just bought them from ebay

[@minisloth2010]

Thanks for the video, maybe a bit long with each seed but it reinforces the principle and doesn't miss anything out and very clear so thank you :) Live in the UK and wanting to plant few different pines and other bits in the winter for next year. Done a few cuttings but never done seeds properly. For stratification would you say it is best to use the fridge method or have them outside in the winter? I have a little temp unheated plastic greenhouse (I am a student so no money for fancy proper ones) but wasn't sure if that would be any good for stratifying seeds.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Use the fridge method coz it's a constant 30 degrees and doesn't temperature swing. Plant the seeds in spring when the temperature starts to become 20ish degrees

[@hgvsfck4914]

Thanks for the video very useful, just recently got a hold of 500 jbp seeds i know i cant sow them all at once i just wanna know how do you store your seeds and how long are they good for once stored

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

So sorry for the late reply mate. I store my seeds in the lower drawer of the refrigerator. I can keep them there for at least a year if I'm not yet ready to sow them

[@jrod3645]

What kind of water? Tap, RO, or distilled? Can u also do it anytime of the year if grown inside under lights?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Just the normal tap water. When you boil it. The impurities will be gone. Make sure that it's not boiling hot coz the seeds will cook

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

I suggest, you place it in a natural light spot. Even if there's not much sun as long as bright. Artificial light will be not enough for the seedlings. You'll find that they will grow very long like a vine and will get sick

[@joekerr7544]

Hi @Brother Sai's Workshop what's the watering routine for these pines? Thanks

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

As long as your soil is free draining. There's a mix of coarse materials in it like pumice, akadama, pine barks, and even charcoal nuggets, you can water it once a day during cool weather, and twice a day during hot summer

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

For seeds that have just been sown, just water it once until the seedlings comes out. When the seedlings are out, give them about a week before bringing them out to full sun and water once a day

[@menorehbonsai1106]

What your soil for seeding?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Just use the standard seed raising mix

[@ericlie145]

Hi I have 1. Japanese white Cypress 2. Japanese Red Maple 3. Japanese Black pine 4. Norway Spruce 5. Scots pine Can all these seeds germinate with your methods? I live in Indonesiaand its very hot climate here. Most methods uses fridge/cold stratification to germinate. Is that even necessary????

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Yes it should

[@ideacipta5368]

what mix soil sir?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

You can use the standard seed raising mix. If you can't find it, you can use 2 part sand, and 1 part compost soil

[@HieuTran-eg6we]

Hi, which Australian state are you from?

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

New South Wales

[@chadrichardmiller790]

Hi bud, I have a question the seeds u got I see from ebay, I assume they already went through the stratification process correct? I live in Germany, but come from South Africa, getting use to the different growing conditions here can be a pain 🤣 in just wondering if I collect my seeds directly from a pine cone I assume stratification is a must if collected before winter. Thanks for the wonderful video very informative

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Japanese Black Pine don't need stratification. Just soak in lukewarm water overnight, and you can sow the next day. Sow them in late spring

[@amparo_4693]

bro... every morning lng ba or isang beses for a day un spray ng water for nursing for weeks or months until repotting thanks.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Sorry sa late reply po. If your soil is full of coarse o magaspang na materials po para maganda ang drainage ay pwede nyo diligan everyday ang seedlings. Importante din na in full sun sila palagi

[@amparo_4693]

@@brothersaisworkshop6461 better late than never hehehe.... salamat bro... ingatz

[@oudehollandsefietspartner420]

Can it be sown in all seasons? I live in Indonesia

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Yes. In indonesia you only have two seasons. You can sow anytime of the year

Good videos

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

Number one, please put a border around the words. It is really hard to read for a lot of it. Two, we didn't need to see you count one hundred seeds. Why is the video mirrored? Otherwise it's a good example video.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Thanks for that mate. I apologize for the bad video. I'm not a professional camera guy. This was just taken from my phone's camera. But if you understand what i was doing, you will surely succeed with your seed sowing. This is a recorded video, so if you cannot quite get it at first, you can always rewind back and watch again. I'm currently starting a small Japanese Black Pine exclusively nursery. Hopefully i can provide JBP materials for bonsai enthusiasts one day.

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

@@brothersaisworkshop6461 I can recommend Movavi editing software myself. It's fairly easy to get the hang of and pretty cheap if you want the whole thing. It was easy enough to follow but just needed some time tuning. Good luck with the nursery. I've been praying my Japanese White Pines will sprout. They're just being really stubborn and I'm not being patient with them 😒🙄🤣 They can't all be dud seeds.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Japanese white pine being a high altitude and cold weather pine similar to Mugo Pine will need cold stratification before sowing. At least 2 months in the fridge

[@StephenTurnerVlogs]

@@brothersaisworkshop6461 They had all winter in my glasshouse.

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Normally i would soak the seeds in lukewarm water for 24 hours first then take them out of the water, dry a bit, and into a zip lock bag, and put in the bottom drawer of the fridge all winter. When spring temp rise above 20'ish degrees, i bring them out and sow shallow in a bed of seed raising mix that have organic materials in it. They grow quite slow. More slower than a Japanese Black Pine.

[@kaeobermoy4401]

Ahhh don’t you just love pines . I think the world could use more

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Just sitting surrounded by pines in my tiny nursery is already a kind of relaxation therapy for me 😊

[@NimrodTargaryen]

Nice... but we don’t need to count them... we believe you

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Sorry to show you the counting part. You can always fast forward if you find the part of the video boring. I normally count how many seeds goes into each tray to balance the spacing and not getting over crowded.

[@แบงค์เรามันเซอร์ร]

มีซับไทยไหมครับ

[@brothersaisworkshop6461]

Really so sorry mate. I'm not really good with editing. But by just watching what I'm doing, i think you can understand enough what I'm doing. It's quite straight forward method
