JoB's Acorn to Oak Tree Thread

Nice! đź‘Ť
How old are those? I started 44 cork oaks from seed last year. Over wintering them in WI now. They seem to be fine. I have them in my basement now at 62* with grow lights on them. Still waiting to see new growth.
These were all started last spring for the oak competition. I have no grow lights , if we go below freezing they go in my little shed next to the window. It does not normally go below 0c in there. As soon as we are above 0c then they go back outside
 
So, the rest repotted this evening, it was a mixed bag regarding roots, a couple of really funky ( not in a good way) tap roots, a few with a nice spread. I did up pot a couple last summer and presume the ones I up potted and cut the tap roots are the much better looking ones. The US red and German Oaks I cut all the tap roots when I transplanted them last spring so will be interesting to see what they are like when I repot. They are all outside frozen so I will need to wait to do them.
Picture not great but my hands were frozen. I will take better ones later in the year 20250203_164002.jpg
