Hi guys, I’m new to the forum so please be gentle!
I received a bonsai grow kit for Christmas, after being very impressed with a market stall I seen beforehand.
I decided to give it a whirl at the beginning of this month. Ultimately, I wasnt expecting anything to grow. However.....
I now have 6 sprouts! (Dawn Redwood)
Most of them stand straight, at about 6cm tall. The tops have begun to separate on them all. They are currently still in a plastic seal bag as per the instructions.
Could I have some help with the following please? The internet generally seems conflicting.

I’m really unsure as to when I should take it out?
Should I separate them into their own separate pots?

Thankyou in advance.

I’ll attach a picture, hopefully it uploads.

Hi, wlecome and congrats on getting these seeds to sprout.

What is the weather like where you live?
Generally it is easier to grow trees according to their natural cycle. In other words: Sowing seeds outdoors and having them come up when spring comes around. I would open the baggy a little bit now so slowly the plants get used to the drier air in the room. YOu will see the condensation starts to disappear. Every week for some 4 weeks you open the baggy further. After that you can take the pot out of the baggy

Firstly, thank you for your response

I live in Plymouth, in the UK. The weather at the moment is cold,wet and generally miserable. It will be this way for some time I imagine.

I will try what you have suggested, many thanks. I currently have 24 small holes pierced in the bag and this has kept the condensation away.
(The first batch I tried, I had very few holes and the condensation was awful)

For at least thirty years my wife has asked me every winter why I leave the trees outside. Isn't it cruel to let them get so cold? The answer is always the same - they need to experience the seasons. Outside in the woods and in the yard are hundreds of trees that have experienced winter every year and have grown to be much bigger than the house.
\You think the weather is cold, wet, and awful. I would think worse since I am from the southeast US. The pine trees outside in your area think the weather is great. Your seedlings are the same. They really need to experience climate the way their ancestors did, and the way their cousins do today. They need to experience humidity they evolved in, and 90% humidity like inside a plastic bag isn't what they are used to.
Let them adjust to what is outdoors slowly, and in a couple of months let them go outside and stay there. You will want protection from sudden changes in temperature next winter, but that is a long time off. Find some people in your neighborhood who do bonsai and see what they do with similar species.

Do you not have a sort of mediteranean wet climate? As in hardly any frost?
I would not keep them indoors more then needed. So if the risk of frost for this season is over, bring them outside and keep them outside for the rest of their lives
