| I've never started Palm trees from seed and I need some instruction on how to do it. Are they different starting from seed than other plants? They are going to be indoor container plants. Which potting soil should I use? Should I use the pine bark 5-1-1 mix or Al's gritty mix for this plant? Should I start from seed in this mix or use seedling mix. I know a bunch of questions but considering that, I know nothing and this would be my first starting from seed project, I need instruction from experienced growers. Thanks in advance. |
