Thank you good sir! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Soil temp set to 82°F min/83°F max. Normally keeps it between 80°F-85°F I have some survival blankets to wrap the setup in also to keep in some more heat and light once the start to germ. If only there was more time in a day... Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks! Hopefully I'll see some signs of life towards the end of the week. Usually I see germination anywhere from 5-14 days but I've had reaper seeds sprout after 30+ days so I usually wait a full 30 days or so before I call it quits on any seeds. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Hey all! Took a while off from posting and didn't grow anything at all last year, sadly. Decided to get something going this year, albeit a lot smaller than my usual grows. Only started 40 plants (double seeds so 80 total) this year on February 25th. Started them in 3.5" pots instead of cells...

Oh man, forgot to post pics here from mine this summer, they looked great! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks!! Up to about 50 Cacti now, 44 individual species.

Nice! My Echinopsis Subdenudatum "Domino's Cactus" flowered a few days ago. It looked great! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Yes, they are both genus of cacti. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Update for my crosses: I didn't keep any of the CPR (but not really) "Red Grenade" seeds last season, my fault. So this year I'm growing F1 seeds again. 2 of 3 plants show the hairy stem trait again. Pod shapes are kinda neat. For those of you new to my glogs, a few years ago I got some CPR...

I don't know that depth matters all that much initially while you are waiting for roots to grow. Depending on the diameter of the cutting, I would say just use a small pot not much wider than the cutting. You don't want it to hold too much water because that will cause rot if there are not...

Thanks Paul! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Yeah! I must of done something right this year, I started about a month later than last year and plants were bigger this year. Getting a little better with managing my feeding and watering schedule each year. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Long time no update! Just a quickie...I've had them all potted up and in the garden for about 2 weeks now. Some of them were starting to yellow so I couldn't wait any more, but it was time anyway. Just fed them some ferts last night. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

3 months later and another reaper seed sprouted... Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

They'll bounce back, but it'll shave a few weeks off your season since they have to spend time regrowing foliage. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

It was the soapy water if you sprayed during the daylight. I made that same mistake and the same thing happened to all my plants two seasons ago. Some sort of combination of the water drops on the leaves acting like a magnifying glass burning the leaves and the soap, because instead of just...

Lol, thanks! Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Hey all, The tent is getting pretty crowded! Looks like I'm starting to see some calcium deficiency's in some plants also. Starting to see some leaf cupping and curling on some new growth. Have some yellow spots on a few leaves as well so might be short on magnesium also. I noticed yellow...

Yeah, I'm surprised too. Since they are in the grow tent with fans and warmer air temps, I've been watering them once a week with Shultz Cacti & Succulent liquid fertilizer (2-7-7) at the recommended strength of 7 drops per quart of water. I have them in a homemade mix of 1/3 each of potting...
