Back in 2017 a friend gave me a hand full of dates which I ate and saved the seeds.

Three grew nicely and by 2020 they were in the ground

Growing nicely.  Wonder if I'll ever see any dates since I'm pushing 80.  LOL

Looking good! Crazy what putting them in the ground and the right temperature will do to their growth! Usually dates grown from seed will take longer on producing dates that what a pup would. Could be anywhere from 10-12 years for dates but seems like it'll be less since you started them in 2017. Only other issue with seed grown is the quality of date is a crapshoot and it may not be as good as the ones you ate.
