Thank you, :D
that's the good advantage of growing from seeds, there are good chances I am going to be some nice hybrids, variegateds or maybe crested seedlings ,
here are more echeverias ebonys from the same batch of seeds then the one above but this ones are growing in more diffused sun light.
actually I have a few more pots with E. ebonys seedlings like this ones.

Everything's looking good. I want to try some T. hexaedrophorus one day.

I've had poor results so far with Echeveria from seed, would you have any tips for them? Mine survived for a long time but never grew much past two or three leaf pairs. I see the soil they're in in your earlier post looks pretty rich, but the second one looks more mineral. How wet do you keep them at this stage?
