Hello from a new member of the Forum

Post by Wendy E »

Hello everyone

I thought it was about time I joined the forum after lurking for a number of years.

I grow mostly cacti and my favorites are Gymnocalycium, Echinocereus, Lobivia and Eriosyce. I grow a lot from seed. I have been growing plants since the 70's and still have not found the way to do it.

Hello Wendy, glad to hear that you are on the Forum after some time spent lurking!.

Do you have any problems germinating Eriosyce seed? and have you flowered any of this slow growing genus?

Looking forward to hearing from you on the Forum,

Dot

Hello Wendy. Welcome to the forum. Don't worry about still not having found the best way to do it. After all, if you found the route to perfection in all, where then would lie the challenge?!

Collection mainly of cacti, though interested in a much wider variety of plants than I can accommodate!

Hello Dot

Thank you for your welcome to the Forum. I look forward to being able to take part in some of the threads.

Have no trouble germinating Eriosyce, its keeping them going after that. We seem to have trouble after they are pricked out. We might try growing them in Seramis.
