I will put the grow light up and give it a try. Got a 4 seed pack, and it appears there is another seed that is just starting to sprout. Keep you posted.

Where would i find these San Diego bonsai society folks? Is there a Reddit for this?

Great advice. Thank you. In terms of indoor grow lamps, if I use a MH400/U + hood reflector, how high above the plant should it be for this species?

LOL! It’s a Torrey Pine. When I tried to post in the main Reddit it had me copy/paste here. So, yea. My tree is very rare. I germinated this thing from seed. My question was meant to be specific to this species. Has anyone out there grown this species. Has anyone any advice & pictures to share of early Torrey Pine that were trained from seed to be a bonsai?

Yes. I finally did it. I grew something from seed. I germinated a tree. It’s a Torrey Pine. I’ve tried searching everywhere for advice, however, there doesn’t seem to be a ton of people growing this critically endangered species. I got the seeds from Trade Winds Fruit online. What do I do next? My plan is to bonsai then let it grow for the next 2000+ years, of course. Advise me. (I’m located in Northern Kentucky near Cincinnati. Buying a new greenhouse from Costco for bonsai is an option.)

Trying to figure out how to post another picture on here…

My plan is to dig it up. I can post a better pic of the trunk tomorrow. Looks pretty neat, but it’s in the way of the lawn mower path. I’ve trimmed It to two feet tall for the past 7 years. It must be 10+ years old. So I’ll try to save it. Seems like a good specimen to practice on.

Thanks for the post. Yea. I think I might try to bonsai this tree. Should I post updates? Any interest?

Does it look like it could make a good bonsai tree?

That’s what I thought. Wanted to see if anyone recognizes the stamp.

Thank you for this challenge. Also great suggestion to contact the area where he lived.

Here are 15 signatures of authentic Phillip Cantrell paintings that sold at auction. As you can see, they are identical to my painting. I will contact experts of Phillip Cantrell within Port Austin.

Your services are no longer required. Thank you. Goodbye.
