Re: Mammillaria boolii
It's so nice to see all these pictures, and also to track the progress of your seedlings, Christer! I've started growing a few Mammillaria from seed recently, and I must say it is particularly rewarding to observe their transformation as they develop their more adult spination, as you show us here.

Re: Mammillaria boolii
All the plants was transplanted into 6 cm pots a year ago.
They are now about one year and eight months old
The hooks have a nice golden shine on this one...
