I had this problem last year. I used coarse sand. At least a 1/2 inch deep on the top. Tape all your holes with duct tape. Let them sit for at least a week. What this will do is prevent new infestation to the soil from adults. It also suffocates the larva.

OK. That's good to know. I have six sprouting. I may do another tray of 10. 50/50 viable so far.

Thank you all. I just couldn't get it out of my mind to try it. I plucked the lil bugger off and put it in with the others.

That's good info. Thanx again. I have plenty of peres. You answered my question before I even asked. The graft wont be done until spring. By that time I should know Everything Right? lol

My Lil Williamsii. Started from seed a year ago. I had six. The others are in other care. Im looking to graft at least one to a Trich or a Bridgesii. Ill be looking for a lot of Guidance from you all being as how you know your shit. Thanks for checkin it out folks. Peace, Red

Started these last week. 3-psycho x TPM. I received them from a friend on another site. Havnt been able to find pics of adults I can rely on. Any and All help is much appreciated. I know the seed comes from Down Under in Yalls neck of the woods. Seems I have to resize the other pics. Get some other shots.

You all amaze me. My seedlings are doing great. Im gonna need all the help I can get this spring.

Wow. How awesome is that.

That's what I was thinking nitro. Mushroomman If it doesn't work or sprout the seed it at a spot were it can be cut off and used hopefully.

Thank you Sir. I just hope when the matucana madisoniorum blooms its red. LOL You made my day.

Bought two of these on sale. They had no tags and the people were clueless on their names. Couldn't pass up .50 cents a plant. Thanks for having a look. Someone said this was a crested Opuntia.OPUNTIA MICRODASYS 'CRISTATA' The last was another rescue plant. This thing I thought Would die. Surprise surprise. Started showing new growth on top.

Pretty flower.
