Pinus pinea: Italian Stone Pine Seeds

One died. One is still going. Worked for me. Best opportunity is to put them in soil and wait for rain. 3 months of watering with tap water with nothing, one good rain and they sprout.

Delivery was perfect! Not yet seen if the seeds start to grow but like said, delivery was fast!

Was able to get one seed from the pack to sprout but was misshaped and died as soon leaves were forming. I've successfully sprouted Italian Stone pine seeds previously from other sources. Would be willing to try these seeds again, but didn't have much luck with my first batch. I have a covered planter tray to control moisture with an appropriately sized grow light setup.

Unfortunately, only 2 seeds out of 2 packs of seeds, sprouted. Hoping the two that sprouted/germinated will grow in to strong, healthy trees

“Warmth” and “thickness” are irrelevant: These are seeds that have yet to germinate! Still waiting for the “growth” to happen... Not unhappy, just honest. Seeds take time.

The first already showed itself. More on the way I can see it.

Not a single nut germinated. The hard to read instructions on a tiny piece of paper are incorrect according to some other sites.

most of the seeds were cracked and unusable. I may have gotten a bad batch.
