i have a question regarding my trays posted previously, theyre going through water pretty quick, i am giving them a decent spray every 2 days and putting the lids back on. theyre still indoors so basically no evaporation from heat. im starting to think i should hold off so that the roots sink a bit deeper, the way it is now i think they are just using the water i spray on top where as i want them to sink their roots through the sand and into the soil below.

do i need to find a happy medium between letting them dry out and making them sink deeper roots?

in the past i have transplanted seedlings quite early but this time im planning on leaving them in the trays for as long as possible, ie until they have good roots and size or until they outgrow the container which is very likely considering the amount of seed ive squeezed into each tray.

when would be the best time to remove the takeaway trays from the indoor setup and put them out under shade cloth? protected from any rains of course.

cheers and thanks in advance.

personally i just take small steps with seedlings

ill start by cutting holes in the lid once they are starting to show spines, a week later i the double the holes, another week later ill take off the lid

after a month of no lid inside i move them outside to shady covered area for months, i try and introduce 3 inch seedlings to full sun over winter so they have some time to toughen up before the summer arrives.

I know this thread is for listing what you are about to sow out and I will do that soon. I will be sowing another 20+ hybrids in the near future.

I wasn't sure where else to post this.

I just wanted to share a picture of my PsychoO X Yowie seedlings that I got from Zed earlier this year.

Looking pretty so far!

Thanks again

My future self is going to be very busy haha,

I crushed up some coral rubble with the mortar and pestle and added to my zeolite germination media for several lophs/arios, I think they are growing much more rapidly and with a different kind of green, still early days tho but i think they have over taken the strait zeolite and are 2 weeks younger, not making alot of sense to me but i shall monitor, same seed stock too. *shrug

Hi all!

I want to grow other cacti than trichos also but I'm quite clueless and need to learn a LOT. Im looking for collectible, rare plants.

Would you be so kind to enlighten my ignorance and guide me through a choice of seeds? Thankxz so much!
