planted 225 cactii =)
    #1297105 - 02/10/03 02:23 PM (21 years, 1 month ago)

i got my seeds from bouncingbear today so i loaded up 3 x 24" window planters with corse gravel in the bottom for drainage, 1 bag of cactus and suculent mix, and a bit of smaller gravel on top. each planter had 3 rows of seeds planted, ~75 per planter. the species i planted were peruvian torch, san pedro, and bridgesii. i'll post some pics after i get some sprouts.

Thats a lot of seeds!  :laugh: I got some from them too but I'm waiting to plant them. Do you have any idea how long they stay viable for? I can't find anything on the web about the seeds.

very cool.... did you bother to sterilize - i don't think it matters but i'm interested in seeing if there is a significant difference in viability as a result?

and are you sure the gravel on top won't inhibit sprouting?

Yes definitely!!! Keep us informed. I have been keeping a close eye on Salvia England's posts about his cacti and their germinations in his soil, i believe he said it was non-sterile but i'm not sure at the moment.

An experiment is definitely in order though. I just wish i had more time, usually when i come home i'm so exhausted i just go to sleep and do not tend to start any experiments.

I planted 10 peruvian torch seeds and 9 of them germinated. Sadly they died from neglect, though, when I was away.
