Ive only germinated aloe once. The seedling is still alive, though very slow. Ive tried a "gonialoe" plicatlis.....

If adromischus should be any similar to graptopetallum bellum (coarse sand method), and tylecodon(old soil method didn work out in the long run), best advice is to sow on top and water a lot.

Best germination technique i could recommend is plastic trays(or cups in a bag), with sterilized coarse sand. Almost everything ive planted in it has germinated, including a euphorbia canariensis and fockea edulis. Downside is i need to add fertilizer from time to time...

As for which seeds you should try(though i cant guarantee success depending on the source ), ive had good very luck with my own rebutia violaceflora and what i think is parodia erubescens. Maybe the san pedro type of trichocereus and setiechinopsis will work out good too.....

Go for it. Jeff has experience with growing aloes and haworthia from seed. Just make sure that you use viable seeds. Everyone has a method that works for them but the staples imo are warmth, water, decent soil.

Be patient. It can take three years for Aloe and Haworthia to get to maturity. So far I've only grown Aloes to full maturity (and cactus and a few mesembs). Aloe might be a bit faster. Realize that they like to be pretty much always moist in the beginning, so if using pretty well draining mix, be careful they don't dry out. Like adult plants, Haworthias don't want as much light as other succulents from seed.

Over a year old now, still in 2" pot.

Extremely fast growing Haworthia at about 3 months. It's smaller than it looks. Most don't grow anywhere near this fast. I keep moving my Haworthia seedlings farther away from the light.

I don't know what I can do to thank you, the encouragement has been great. I ended up buying 2 haworthias, 2 pelargoniums, and an adromischus, from Mesa Garden, lets see if I get them by President's day.

You know they'll be good seeds. I recently got an order from them and it took maybe about 2 (or 3?) weeks to get them after I put in the order. I thought it would be slower than that.
