Re: Seed sowing woes Solved
OK. The insides of seeds are not sterile and there are studies proposing that seeds carry microbes from their environment that can facilitate growth on the substrates from which they grew/evolved. So, complete sterility is impossible but you know that I'm sure..
Great photography on your website!

Re: Seed sowing woes Solved
To focus on your method, when you spray your seeds with distilled water - is that sterile?

Re: Waiting for tomorrow
Genetic similarity and day length would be a likely answer for flowering together.

Re: Thelocactus flowers
That's a nice colour for a Thelocactus, Ralph. Not seen that before. One to look out.

Impressive.
All roads lead to Rome and all austrocacti lean to the South.

Re: Austrocacti
Nice flowers Ralph. I've been germinating austrocacti seed for a few years and have used sulphuric acid once but it is a faff if you have lots to sow. Even though I can go into a lab to use the acid, I'm really not keen. In my hands the acid was very impressive with Pyrrhocactus umadeave germination...
