This was not my aim. I value your opinion and advice.
I apologise if I caused offence, I just do not understand why you would tell someone this will not be a Bonsai.
Yes it will grow into a tree untouched but I'm sure with correct techniques this could one day make a beautiful Bonsai.

First of all i didn't tell him there would not grow a bonsai out of that seedling, i asked if he knew that there will not grow one out of that seedling, which is a major difference.


My question was just a fast deduction:
- the TS asks about discoloring of a pine seedling, and the seedling is inside on a windowsill, which generally means he has little to none horticultural experience.
- the fact that he asks his question in a bonsai forum and not a general plant forum means there is a "connection" to bonsai somewhere, probably from a boinsai starter kit ( seed), or something alike... ( which again means he has little experience)
- these questions have been asked here a million times, we do start to know who asks them...
- TS is brand new to this forum...

Samer, i am not saying this to offend you, it's a simple, objective observation and please correct me if i'm wrong, i'll be the first to admit i was wrong if thats the case.

Cobra, no offence taken.
