photo of pine seeds to grow
 

These seed pods from a pine tree growing in our garden have just sprouted
very tiny green lumps which we think are shoots.

We would like to grow them, would it be alright to put them in flower pots
now; or is it too early, and I should wait until the seeds become more
visible?

Thanks for any advice.

Yes, they've started, I would pot them up.

All I ever seem to get on mine are cones!
Where do the pods appear ?

They are past the difficult stage so pot them up and they will grow. I
planted one straight into the ground a few years ago. It's now about
60' high.

Technically those are cones. And they're not from a pine tree - they
look like they're from a cypress. And I would interpret the green bits
as shoots growing from the stems to which the cones are attached.

Yes, I'd agree with that.

And here. I grew my Pine from a Guiness Xmas promotion a few years back the
seeds looked very like this

The depicted 'cone' is like the ones that grow on on my Lawsonii
