Some seeds are growing

11 years ago

I bought the seeds from succseed.com. Germination rate is quite high,Astrophytum asterias seed germinated just in 2 days.

The pictures were taken 29.07.2015 , seedlings are now bigger, most of them have spines.

I will add the new pictures soon.

Here are the pictures :

Coming along nicely. The Eriosyce esmeraldana have a really interesting look as seedlings. Any particular reason why the germination rate of the Rebutia heliosa is so low? Is that just how they are, or just bad luck on that batch?

Keep up the good work and keep the pictures coming.

Hey Nicholas , i think just bad luck with Rebutia heliosa batch, the others are fine. I will update in every month or if there is some change with the seedlings.

MintyLemonade, i keep them in these small containers. i just spread the seeds on the soil and mist when the soil starts to dry.
