Growing a DATE PALM TREE Time-lapse



I will make this one a forever project with one updated video per year, so next update video in 2024 :).
I also have no idea if this is a female or male plant, and i don’t know if there is a way to tell this early.

And also thank you to everyone watching for one million subscribers!

“Phoenix dactylifera, commonly known as date palm, is a flowering plant species in the palm family, Arecaceae, cultivated for its edible sweet fruit called dates. The species is widely cultivated across northern Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia, and is naturalized in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide”

  1. So like what do you do with all these saplings after you've finished the video and need the pot for a new video?

  2. Damn, the time investment for a less than 2 minute video is crazy. I'm too lazy to put out my clothing for the next day.

  3. Did you buy the dates specifically as seeds or did they come from the grocery store? I would love to try this!!

  4. What soil and fertilizers do you use? Your plants grow so well!

  5. Because of your vids, I'm in Florida weather and have started growing a Chili 🌶️ plant and Parsley 🌿 plant. The Parsley is taking forever but the Chili has already grown maybe an inch in 2 weeks. Doesn't seem like too much progress but I switched them to both be in the same pots, I'm using the rope watering method, and a cold front just came over to be about 60 degrees.

    Thank you though for such peaceful inspiration to help nature grow, and keep growing whatever you're interested in, because we'll all love it. 🏞️🥰

  6. It's looks like a piece of grass that takes weeks to grow 😂. I love it though ❤️

  7. Bro dates tree takes forever to generate dates. like I am 133 and if I plant date tree right naw I won't be able to eat its date, my son or even grandson will be able to eat it's date

  8. Я хоть и не американец (НАДЕЮСЬ ВЫ ЭТО ПЕРЕВИДЕТЕ) но мне очень нравится эти видео во первых я природа люб во вторых я уважаю терпение и в третих я обожаю таймлапсы!

  9. With my own experience, I want to give some tips to people who want yo grow dates:

    -If you don’t use the wet paper method, use a big soil-pot, because if you use a little one you will need to change it fast.

    If you use the paper method, don’t wait to long, the roots don’t need to be fully developed.

    -Try to avoid soil of your garden because it can contain parasites that will eat the roots.

    – And lastly, BE PATIENT.

  10. If you want it to be a female, take it out of the soil when it's about 15cm tall and remove the seed with cleaning the remaining parts where the seed was attached to, then replant it again in the soil, planting a palm tree with this method it's 90% guaranteed to be a female.

  11. I'm growing about 50 medjool dates myself for the first time from seed. A tip to getting them to sprout quicker is to presoak them. They are tough seeds and can handle a week of soaking. Just change out the water every day. I then did paper towel germination and had the roots emerging in another week.

  12. When I was a goat shepherd in the Negev desert in Israel there would be a very random and totally out of place date tree every now and then that were grown from people spitting out date seeds.
