tripsis Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I have virtually all the hybrids with monstrose/cristate parents from Nitrogen. I don't have the time or space to raise them at the moment, but am still interested in the progeny produced. So I would like to outsource raising them to a trustworthy/competent forum member. That member will get to keep all the offspring, but in return, I would like a cutting or graft all whichever individuals I am interested in at some point down the line, or perhaps even be send specific individuals when they're old enough to be posted (probably a year or two, unless grafted) and I can then send a cutting or graft back in return. There will not be a limit on the number of plants I could ask cutings of, but realistically, it probably won't be too many, just a few of the one that appeal to me.Seeing as I've done something similar with Solanaecae seeds before, asking only for photographs of them to be posted in return, and not a single member whom I distributed the seeds to kept their word, you'll have to convince me that you're actually going to be fair and keep your end of the deal. Perhaps I'll split the seeds and send to a couple of members.Anyway, if you're interested, post here and I'll decide. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndianDreaming Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I'd have a go for you Tripsis - I've been busily growing all sorts of cacti using the Take-Away tek, then moving them into the 2x4 trays and eventually out into pots. Over the last few years my techniques have grown so I'm not losing many at all now. I've organised a nice shady spot for hardening off which was the biggest issue, I put them outside too quick and lost a lot to sunburn... I can send you some photos of my seedlings if you likeSee how you go - there's more experienced growers here, but I'll have a go if you want. I'm happy to send photos - just got a new camera and it's 18.2mp and has an awesome macro! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripsis Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Don't worry, in a few years there'll be so many of these being passed around the community it'll be impossible to keep track of what's what. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
