YouTube channel Boxlapse recently shared a mesmerizing video that shows a pinecone growing into a pine tree in under two minutes. It is a fascinating sight that makes one realize how amazing nature can be.
Back in 2022, around Christmas time, the creator behind Boxlapse bought a pinecone from the supermarket. They took the seed out of it and planted it into a pot. Since then, the pot has been recorded with a camera in order to capture the seed’s transformation into a pine tree.
After providing an update after 300 days, Boxlapse shared a new video in November. This one condenses 653 days of pine tree growing to just under two minutes.
You’ll witness the seed being harvested from the pinecone and planted, emerging from the dirt as a small blade of grass and then growing into a small tree covered with needles.
“653 days is not quite 2 years, but it sounds better. The tree is doing well but i think it’s time soon to switch to a bigger pot,” Boxlapse wrote in the caption of the video while promising another update on the tree in November 2025.
