Yes.
Light, wind and humidity.
They need it. Better outside, but... It is winter.

I wonder if nature knows that its winter with the global warming going on, cause its freaking warm outside for this time of the year.
16 degrees?!
But yes I was totally impatient to grow these in december haha.

So, you placed a seedling that thinks it is spring in the bathroom, where it is colder and where there's not enough light?
Doesn't seem like a good plan.

Also, you cannot tell after a few hours if the plant is doing better.

Let's wait and see. FYI: I'm growing black pines from seed myself. They are in their fifth year now (outside, in the garden, of course).
It mostly means just letting them grow, repot in a larger size pot, let them grow again. I have done some pruning this year, but won't be doing much with 'm next year. They'll need to grow more.

Sounds nice! I wonder when there this young they dont need any fertilizer, and only in spring I assume?
Whats a good fertilizer to use for these?
