Note to self, even though it's pouring rain, check the greenhouse more often.
We've had some heavy rains this past week, and today I find that a tiny leak had created a pool on a shelf which in turns set off a little stream that ran along the edge of the shelf and like some kind of malicious sniper decided to take out my Ariocarpus confusus below it. I've given it surgery, but I think the rot/water has got into the growing point, so it looks like a goner...GGRRRRR:curses:
