RE: Growing spruce trees from seeds yourself is easy
Any suggestions for germinating coastal Redwood trees? I collected seed at UC Santa Cruz last year.

Unlike some other conifers, coastal Redwood doesn't require cold stratification. The usual protocol is to soak for 24 hours in water and then move to a moist growing medium for 2-4 weeks until emergence. This site has some helpful information and comments if you'd like to learn more.
Thanks! Going to start a few and secretly plant them on campus at University of California, San Diego.
