    Grabbing multiple seedlings because you’re to lazy to pot them up all individually, I’ve been there brother

      sometimes i just spread the clump out a bit in a tray to give them some breathing room. easy to get carried away sowing more seed than you have space/time for.

    looks like they could be Thelocactus (hamatocactus) setispinus.

    Nice. Little different from what your normally doing. I like it. Was wondering about how long you should leave them in the pot. Thanks dude.

    What’s the routine for the repotted seedlings? Like after they are repotted do you just put them back under your grow light? & Does the watering increase?

    I just sowed my first cactus seeds this month, I forgot to write the exact day on it at the time of sowing but I have a mix of seeds from my two old mammillarias, some seeds I bought, and some mystery seeds from a tiny heavily spined dead cactus that came in the pot with a big old Echinopsis eyriesii I got from a yard sale. I think the mystery cactus could have been a mammillaria so I put them in the flat with my other mammillaria seeds since I don't know the species anymore. I'm growing then without a heat mat in the shade on my porch in an plastic muffin box, plastic cookie box, and the little blue plastic boxes mushrooms come in. I sowed my mammillaria seeds first to seed if they'd work and once I saw little green dots I sowed the ones I bought.

    Should try adding some 13-13-13 slow release pellets into your mix.

    What is the best place to get these 3 1/4 inch pots ?
    I have few of these green ones and they seem to be good quality.

    • @CactusQuest
      @CactusQuest  2 роки тому +1

      good question. I buy them in bulk from a horticultural supply place nearby here in so cal. You can find them online from Ali baba too usually. maybe not the green ones per say but with the supply chain issue these have been hard to find tbh

    Hey Hunter! I see you're using those Water Dance 3.25" pots. Are you still able to get those in bulk? I've been trying to find a source of those for a while but I've had no success.

    Uni-gro mix..can't seem to find it anywhere online, at it doesn't appear they sell it at local stores. What would be a good runner up to use in place of Uni-gro?

    • @CactusQuest
      @CactusQuest  2 роки тому

      really for the most part I imagine a typical cacti and succulent mix would be decent to use in place ofuni-grow. if there's one thing I've learned there is more than one way to skin a cat when it comes to soil mixes. so I'm sure its a safe option to just use what you have available

  • @zacharytilghman

    At what age do you take them out of the bags and have them growing without the humidity? I'm growing a lot of ferocactus species a few golden barrel cultivars and a lot of different melocactus.

    • @CactusQuest
      @CactusQuest  2 роки тому +1

      I sowed them in a large Tupperware container instead of bags so I could water and spray more easily I started leaving it cracked open at about 2 months by 3 months they were in open air

    People try turface. Cant EVER over water plants. I use it on everything.

    • @CactusQuest
      @CactusQuest  2 роки тому

      pure turface?

    • @billyjack3580
      @billyjack3580 2 роки тому

      @@CactusQuest I’ve used straight Turface occasionally. It’s OK, but if it goes dry, it can ‘channel’, and then you need to dunk the pot to fully re-wet. I like to mix Turface 50-50 with perlite for rooting cuttings. I’ve used equal parts pumice, Turface and akadama with decent results. Still playing with formulas and ingredients after all these years...
      Edit; I’m in NorCal, and a lot of my C&S are outside all year. I grow quite a few Haworthia. There are two ways to protect against wet winters; open, mostly mineral mixes, and tall pots. For a mix with as much organic as yours, I’d have to use a 3x9 Anderson plant band.
