Which way? was created by teivah

Posted 4 years 7 months ago #60041
Hello all,

Sorry in advance if all my questions are stupid this is the first plant I ever got.
My seed just sprouts out:
This image is hidden for guests.
Please log in or register to see it.


I'm wondering which way shall I plant it back? Which part is the root? The one I'm holding on the picture or the part with the seed?
And what shall I do with the seed itself?

Thank you

Do i understand correct that you pulled out a seedling, and now you do not know which way you have to replant it???
If i did understand correct: that seedling is now dead!!
Sorry, but i cant help asking myself if this is a joke.

Why would that be a joke? I'm genuinely asking for help.
Why would it be dead?

Because a seedling that just sprouted is very very very fragile, the least disturbance is enough to kill it.
And then your question: it sprouts with a root going down, and a leaf going up, which way do you really think it should be planted...?

A question from me: why you have asked this in a bonsai forum?

Don't lecture me. And I asked this because that's a bonsai and we are on a bonsai forum. Is it enough?

Thanks for the information about its fragility though. I wasn't aware

A seedling is not a bonsai ever, and it will not be one for the next 15-20 years at least. Where did you get the idea that that is a bonsai?

名媛直播 is about creating ?n image of ?n old tree in miniature. Almost any tree can be used. But it needs to be mature before you can start to train it. Before that it is first a seedling and then a young tree.

I reccon, you purshased "bonsai seeds". But actually, there are no such things. It is just overpriced ordinary tree seeds. In my opinion selling bonsai seeds is a fraud. I am sorry you fell for it.

And, yes....you proboably killed your seedling ripping it out of the pot. That is your first hard learning in doing bonsai. If you choose to continue doing the art of bonsai there Will be more of them. Get a good bonsai book and start studying, you might be able to avoid a few of them.
