Wow kactus.... Nice stuff bro, it looks very nice and organized in there man, well done.
Here's my indoor set up, you've probably seen it in the salvia growers thread.
Using 150w LED, and 2x 24w 5200k blue floros. Salvia divinorum, rooting p. Virids leaves, trich pach, mamm red head, cholla cutting, some random succulent, more salvia...
Here's one of my newely aquired nepethene x ventrata plants.

Here's my trich pach with something going on with the top... Suspected caterpillar...
And idk what this is, some sort of succulent I grew from a leaf that accidentally fell in one of the cactus I bought from Walmart, maybe ice plant of some sort.. Idk

I'm also over wintering some peppermint, cat nip, and lemon balm... I had them in pots anyway. I also brought in my potted strawberries and my cholla cactus and my trich grandiflorous and my mammiliria red head.

Nope,I have jade,and that's not a jade.
I also have one of those too,but I forget what it's called.
I think it's a type of sedum though.

Haha thanks for the guesses... I should have looked for another of the same kind for a label heh... I didn't really expect it to grow anyway. 
Yep... I love seeing my plants so much I leave some indoors all year long like the salvias, my African violets and the nepethenes.
I think in early early spring I'll try to plant a Sally outdoors and let it get huge.

Supposedly i thought i would be lwft out of this thread. Well i was wrong. Last night it dipped into the low 60s. I thought, surely all my plants would be fine. Well all were with the exception of my Erythroxylum novogranatense. The leaves were all limp. the cacao seemed to be ok which surprised me.
I gotta bring those babies in i guess.

It is luxury I admit. I usually put my plants in cold frames Dec to Feb to keep them dry - but as the drought enters its fourth year I am wondering whether I dare do without that.

Totally frost free here kactusbrandg. But when I grew in Scotland I had a heated greenhouse - used a paraffin heater - cheapest to run - plants did OK - but nothing like as well as here in Spain.

You should be so lucky? That was in Scotland where it was FUCKING FREEZING.
But the paraffin heater produced lots of CO2 which I think the plants liked.
