I have a Bonsai Kit from amazon that has a Ficus Religiosa seed pod. Their video says to plant the whole pod. Every other video I have seen cuts open the pod to remove seeds. Can anyone verify that I should plant the entire acorn looking pod? Any reply is appreciated because I am clueless.
Thanks, Al K.

I would never plant the whole fruit; Ficus is a light-sensitive germination species, afaik.

It is not a seedpod. It is a singular seed, afaict
