Thanks for the document!How should I go about preparing and planting them? This is my first time growing any conifer from seed. My initial plan was to soak them for a week with twice daily water changes, like I did with my Baobabs. I think they’re native to a dry region that gets cool, but not cold, in the winter.
So, does this thing need chill to produce cones? Is there any chance it would do well in Florida?

It needs cooler arid nights to thrive, it is native to a small area in Zacatecas above 4k ft elevation.I germinated them in past but lost the seedlings to damp off stage due to fungal attack.
I get five of nine seeds sprouted from Pinus maximartinezi from Rare Palm Seeds! 21 cotyledons in two first, agrees with the description.
