JM Seed Propogation Care Help

10 years ago

Hi.

I have been trying to grow seeds from my Grandads Acer for
several years now..this is the first year I got any seeds to germinate.

I have 3 seedlings that i transplanted and now seem quite happy.

My questions are as follows.

1: What soil is best to use to grow the seedlings.
2: At what point do you transplant any germinated seedlings and into what soil?
3: If they grow into little plants what do you do with them in the first winter?
I've made sure they are checked every day to see if they need water but am not
sure what to do with them over this winter?

Any help is greatly appreciated as I get im,mense pleasure out of growing them and adore the trees.

Pictures below are of the parent tree....over 30 years old and originally only as high as my shin :)
The seedlings how they look in the spring..tiny tiny little flowers.
And my 3 surviving seedlings from this years batch.

Cheers.

Buzz.
