Sowing Pediocactus peeblesianus

[Vanzily]

At the spring. I sowed some Pediocactus peeblesianus fikenckiorum which come from House Rock Valley. As a difficult plant to srpout, I made the process to perforate the seed with a pin and cared to not damage the embryo. It was my first time doing that and my first time trying to grow one thing from this genre

The germination started very good, with temperatures no more than 30 degrees

The big root can need some help to enter into the substrate

I made several grafts this final summer and fall and for this moment this ones are keep going. The big ones are the the most old

Looks like some sort of opuntia. Hard to tell what species. I recently started grafting on opuntia and i've gotta say, the results are pretty good!
