Yes. However. However, red oak acorns normally don't germinate until they have experienced winter cold. White oak acorns germinate immediately.

If you are trying to start red oaks, you can put them in pots in your garage or on your porch for a few months. Then in late winter bring them in and start watering them to give them a little head start. Be careful not to forget them.

sure... experiment ...

but i would only try a few... and plant the rest outside ... and put a screen over them to protect them from the rats with furry tails ...

getting them to germinate.. will be the least of your problems.. of growing trees indoors ... over winter ... my biggest problems is the forced air furnace ... humidity ... and then secondly.. soggy media .... then sunlight ... in that order

were are you ...
