One way to grow a plant in bonsai style is to grow it from seed. A tiny seed makes it possible to understand the full growing process already in the first stage, and also to see what possibilities the plant has for live and what chances you have to become a parent.
If the conditions are perfect, you will see the long-awaited sprout in the required time and say "Happy Birthday" to it!
However, when growing plants from seed, you should consider that:
- Seeds do not germinate for days, weeks or months and may not germinate at the same time - this is normal in nature.
- Seed germination depends on the viability of the seed. The percentage of germination is different from plant to plant.
- Most seeds require proper stratification, i.e. a dormant period under certain conditions, before germination. Without this, they will not germinate.
- Seeds have different requirements for their germination conditions (soil, humidity, temperature, light).
- Seeds make it possible to grow a plant, but not guarantee it.
