Ich habe draußen ein paar Eicheln stehen, weil ich sie zum Keimen bringen wollte und sie sowieso von Eichhörnchen oder Rüsselkäfern gefressen würden. Die anderen sind völlig in Ordnung und hellgrün und ungefähr viermal so groß wie diese, aber diese hier ist … ?? ? Was ist passiert

Could be an “albino” oak tree, super cool if so
I think, looks good. Probably just genes of oak. Should be very beauty if stay like that, in this color ☺️
It should be Scarlet oak 🤔
Keep growing it and make new pics. ☺️
It’s mutated to be albino. Very pretty, but unfortunately chances are it won’t survive. There’s a reason we don’t see many albino trees. They need chlorophyll and other pigments to survive. But do try growing and see what happens! You never know.
What kind of light could it benefit most from to keep it alive, I wonder?
Put it outside
It’s not in dirt. That’s what’s wrong.
I germinated a few cherry pits that were albino. After the cotyledons were spent the trees all died, but before they did I tried grafting them to other normal seedlings. None took, but if I get the chance to do it I will.
Has it had any light? If not, it may just not have any chlorophyll yet.
It won’t survive for long. It isn’t a type of plant that is evolved to be albino. Only specific plants can lack chlorophyll and survive, because they’re parasites to plants that do have chlorophyll like other trees. No matter how much nutrient-dense soil you give it, it can’t complete the processes it needs to without chlorophyll.
Yup got a little mutant growing there. You can try and nurture it to see if it survives. But often without chlorophyll (the stuff that makes plants green) a plant mutant will usually die off. If it has a little green in it they could survive. But without at least a little green on them they will likely die. Because they are not getting food from the chlorophyll if they have no green on them. Happens with cactus pups (baby cactus) too. The mutant albinos in cactus can survive if they are grafted onto a host cactus, like a piece of dragon fruit cactus for example, that is green. That is how they make moon cactus. But being an oak tree, I doubt you can graft it to save it.
I wouldn’t put it in direct sunlight or anything too bright. Might burn.
Please make updates!
What the shitshat?
Muito bela
The only way to keep this alive is to graft it another normal tree or find a tissue culture specialist that can grow oaks. Even then it will be hard to keep it alive in a tissue culture environment.
Was the whole thing covered in dirt? Lack of light can prevent formation of chlorophyll. After letting the shoot get some light it should turn green, unless it’s a genuine mutant.
