Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Scarification: Lightly sand or nick the seed coat to enhance water absorption and aid germination.
Soaking: Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to soften the seed coat.
Sowing:
Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in well-draining, sandy soil.
Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Use pots or trays with drainage holes to prevent excess moisture.
Light: Ensure the seeds receive ample light, either from natural sunlight or grow lights, for at least 6-8 hours a day.
Germination:
Germination typically occurs within 1-3 weeks but may take longer depending on conditions.
Maintain a warm temperature of 75-80°F (24-27°C) for optimal germination.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have developed several true leaves, transplant them into individual pots.
Use a well-draining potting mix suitable for cacti and succulents.
Ensure the pots have good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
Care and Maintenance:
Watering: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between watering's. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Sunlight: Provide full sun exposure for at least 6 hours per day.
Protection: Protect from frost and cold temperatures. Bring the plants indoors during winter if necessary.
Pest Control: Watch for common pests such as aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. Treat with insecticides or insecticidal soap if needed.
