Salvia Divinorum seedlings from actual seeds

Migrated topic.

oh the tiny beauties !
Thank you very much When, it gives hope although I've never seen a SD blossoming in my zone, an actual photographic evidence of seed propagation is very good news.

Those are SD seedlings?
Uh-oh, I see those in my salvia pots all the time, and pull them out, thinking that they're some tag-along plant taking root. Mine have never flowered

Actually technically although you may see young leaves, you don't see seedlings because if you don't get flowers, you won't get seeds, if you get flowers you won't get polinization, hence you don't get seedlings. Cotyledons from different species look very much alike, so it's nearly impossible to tell visually which specy is growing until first leaves appear.

Thanks Corax, they're doing well :)

Got them to third leaf stage now. Good progress, and it's good to see you got rid of all the other plants around them, as it's in the upcoming stage that their roots will really begin to spread. My one concern is that they're growing almost on top of each other and at this stage separating them would be very detrimental, and once the roots get intertwined you'd have to rip the plant in half to get them apart. I guess they'll have to be twins for life 😁 oh and that root above the soil isn't such a bad thing, they will run root just below/on the surface as breathers, you can a a little soil or mulch, but don't cover them to much, they'll just keep pumping them out further up the trunk.

Nice to see there's some green thumbs among the nexians :thumb_up:

Thanks Wiz,
I had forgot to mention I transplanted them into a separate pot, theyre enjoying the extra legroom. I have no intention to separate them so they'll have to get along :)
They had developed more roots than I thought they would. The root mass was close to the surface, maybe 2 inches deep and 3 inches wide, roots were visable poking out of the root "puck". Their roots are intertwined so your right, it would be quite risky to attempt a separation.
 
Yeah, there's no real need to separate them, they'll happily grow side by side, they'll just get a bit of sibling rivalry going on, fighting for your love lol

Lol, im sure they can be loved equally. Thanks for the update, I hope they continue to do well :thumb_up:
 
Great thread dude :D I'm going to order 10 seeds from sage wisdom here in the next few days, and if they germinate, I'll be delighted to use this thread to update you on a new pair of hotties growing. If you don't mind TS :)

Weird that they're so slow in the beginning and so incredibly fast when they get established...

Yes I agree! I guess they were more focused on producing roots. It'll be fun to watch their progress :)
