I think i got a similar cutting, showing the exact same symptoms, best of luck to you!

I have tried moving some straight into the greenhouse in the middle of winter, they looked good although we got one non cloudy day and the plant was instantly shrivelled from sunburn. It seems the suns a lot stronger than the cfl I have been using crazy

Hey All, I've had quite a bit on the go during winter, seedlings and grafts under CFL's inside, they have been alive ~4 months growing well. I want to start getting ready to move them outside for spring time. I am wondering how you guys go about it, I want to get them into my greenhouses, which are covered by greenhouse plastic and 30% shadecloth year round. I also want to try and do it with as little touching to the plants as possible as well, ie id only like to move them around once or twice is that possible? I was thinking once the days warm up a bit mroe here I'll move under 2 x 30% shadecloth and eventually start removing shadecloth one at a time. Anyway what do you guys do? would lvoe to hear. Cheers. bonus here is a pic of one of the grafts i'm talking about a variagated astro, that might be starting to crest out? we will have to wait and see!!!

Sorry mate, I kinda forgot to post pics. here is Loph. Joudania var mammaliris. 2 Phenotypes, looks very different. Sorry for the shitty pics, from my phone. Edit** thought I'd mention I had great germ rates on most of Koehres loph seeds, besides there jourdania, and only 2 came up from there jourdania var mammiliris seeds bit weird.

Just writing this post to add handreck and Black again to ensure you get it!! :D lol

I have two young L. Jourdani var. Mammaliris from koehress currently on the go, ill get the pictures up. Two very diff phenotypes it seems.

From my understaing of PGR's if you want to increase root growth the class of auxis is useful . Brassinolde is more of a plant steroid i think, as well as triacontanol increasing photosynthetic capability of plants.

Are his seeds imported incog? or are they his own? I have also tried contacting him ~ a year ago, got no contact back and it seems like his website has not changed at all

Nice work mate!!!! I've also made my own greenhouse, heaps better than bunnings crap + cheaper! Looking at yours, do you have some windows for ventilation? I can see it gaining a lot of humidity otherwise. Also the greenhouse plastic is tuff, but stapling it down will mean it is much more prone to tearing in heavy weather!!

I think you may be referring to silica? most commonly found for us in the form Potassium silicate? Great for strengthening cells, I have been told about it's use in the nursery industry for frost protection.

Koehres lophophora localities germed well for me, the only one that didn't germ that well was the Jourania.

I have also had a very similar experience in regards to there aztekium and ariocarpus seeds. I bought 1000 packs, while there lophs have great germ rate. As a side note, does anyone have any other sellers that do large amounts of ariocarpus/aztekium seeds?
