Yet another San Pedro Question...
    #5686702 - 05/29/06 02:15 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

So with many seeds the prefered technique of germination is the paper towel thing. But for san pedros it seems that the prefered metthod of germination is either sand or sandy soil.
Why is there a difference?  :confused:

Cactus seeds need light to germinate.

This is one reason I think.

hmm... but still, wouldnt a moist papertowel in the sun be enough light? why is under sand prefered? Under sand would get roughly the same amount of light as under a thin paper towel right? (obviously it depends how deep under sand you plant :tongue:)

Because they're freaking tiny?

A newly germinated pedro seed is a very fragile thing, same with most cacti. You want it to level itself out and sink itself in as soon as possible. As soon as it has popped open, often times the shell is completely off. Or, it will be overnight, etc.

It just makes more sense to place it in the soil it will grow in, very near the top of the soil.

cactus soil is a waste of money.You can get 3 times as much for the same price.Just buy regular soil.And add some course sand if you wish.

I think the sand form the beach would be just fine.It isnt the most course sand,but it will do the trick I think.I dont know what the beach sand is on the west coast.

Here in the gulf its very fine white sand.East coast is darker and a bit more course.

I didnt even use sand to germinate my seeds,and they are fine.

Your beach sand would be great unless your a perfectionest.hehe

Well a lot of railroads have granite on or around themAlong with some other volcanic rock that weighs next to nothing.But I dont want to go at a bunch of rocks with a sledge hammer.

I would chissel a counter out of pure joy though.:rotfl:

I think Ill stick to just regular sand. I dont really know many people that would have granite layin around, and Im too lazy to go lookin around for it when I got some sand down the road.
Thanx guys!
