Re: Miles' To Go Fall plant list out!
Hi George ! that seems to be quite a lot of coir! Since it holds water for a looong time you should be very careful with your watering regime.If you can´t get pumice perhaps you can get som cat litter? It must be the pink variant (danish moler) otherwise it will disintegrate and make the substrate h...

Re: One of the things you've always feared
I have tried to grow Astrophytum caput-medusae from seed and it has worked fine until Young robins have found their way into the greenhouse.Seedlings were scattered around and there were fewer to find after each visit. That happened Three years in a row-I don´t try to grow from seed any more.....

Re: Ariocarpus trigonus
It is certainly not a caudex,you can see the feeding rootletshigh up on the main root, so just bury the plant up to where the green starts as others already have said.

Re: Geohintonia! Etc.!
About Geohintonia-as a seed grown plant it will eventually develop a very big root,so will need a deep pot. Winter is a good time to repot, since the plant isn´t going to be disturbed during its growing period and the roots will have time to heal before watering starts. Ortegocactus is as fast growi...

Some degrees below 0C and a Little flurry of snow at the beginning of December but since then it has been around +4C, but the weather forecast says it will go down to -10C in the next couple of days and that would be the norm for this time of the ...

Re: Geohintonia! Etc.!
Geohintonia might be a bit hard to grow on on own roots but if you succed it will have very nice flowers. It will also grow a very big root so a deep pot is needed .A.hintoni is very easy on own roots ,grows relatively fast and is a prolific flowerer.Highly recommended!
