So i started them 1.5 months ago end of may with the last few germinating roughly june 10-20.
I dont really know the yield because I already forgot most of the stuff and the info was washed off the container. Whats sure tho is that I now have 6 1 month old acacia saplings ready to grow.

I transplated them into their own container now because the roots were starting to fight.

Nice looking plants. I started mine about 3 months ago and have had them in a greenhouse in uk. They started off looking like yours, but have now got very spindly and dont have as many of the pretty, fern shaped leaves anymore. I think this is normal for the narrow phyllode variety though. Going try some outdoors when theyre bigger.

Yeah thats probably why theyre spindly. Its the only place I can keep them at the moment, a lean-to conservatory along one side of the house. Gets plenty of light but not much direct sun, only a couple of hours a day. Im hoping by next year theyll be able to go outside to a sunnier spot. Are yours in or outdoors or in a greenhouse?
 
My get moar sunlight and are a small bit thicker.
But mine are still developing their phyllodes.
 
Pretty much the same but somewhat bigger.
One died for some reason even tho it was in the same spot and had the same care.
