red ariocarpus

Recommended Posts

Hi all i have these ariocarpus seedlings they sprouted green and pink then turned red. I thought maybe that's what they do but some of them are 3 months old and still red. They grow well and look happy with not to much sun and haven't ever dried out. Is this normal for ariocarpus?

Its due to stress - they should go normal colour soon, after they get used to whatever is stressing them. Almost all of mine do this because the light I keep them under for germination and the first few months is quite bright.

Cheers guys wasn't worried as they look very healthy and fat was just wondering if i had some freaks or if they all went red before they turn green
