Bonsai is one of the few times I encourage using seeds. Try foraging pine seeds, they grow fast.

lol no

OP, how exactly are you doing this? And what species?

Try finding a great branch specimen and use the air-layering technique. You have to get your soil correct though.

Do you have any gardening experience, or are you jumping right into this? Probably overwatering and using dense soil.

Plant them in a big pot. You'll keep them in there for the first 5 years or so. Plant them in the ground before frost. I suggest taking a class. There's a lot to know. How much peat soil to use, when to transplant and how much roots to trim during, twisting off tips in the spring, what buds to keep, plant food, bending what branches, cutting certain exposed roots (secondaries) while leaving others (mains), bark putty, diff gauge wires, diff species require diff shit. Have fun. You may have these for decades.

I'm attempting transplant, not propagation.

You obviously don't understand the concept of bonsai.

Yea, I made all that up, ha. Leave them in the pot and bury the pot in the ground. More specific for you? My dad did it for 30 years so eat brains.

Planting bonsai (pots) in the ground to overwinter is very common. What, you are going to keep your spruce, fir, and hemlock seedlings at room temperature indefinitely?

Forget bonsai, first learn how to take care of young conifers, then work into training them.

shit will never grow in tiny pots.
