Looking good so far, but would be much quicker to go from flower to seed

Hello, could you comment how to care seedlings of Titanopsis and Lithops? For example, % of shade, how often and how water them.

I'm sorry I missed your post

I grow my plants in very special conditions. I use artificial light, only artificial light, and water my plants every 10 days. I perform some experiments with fans and sensors to get good conditions for my plants.

I do not have a greenhouse or a garden but grow my plants indoors.

If I will succeed, the future will show

The count in days are not from germination, it's from the day the seeds was sowed

Thank you

These seeds were purchased as Aloinopsis luckhoffii RH 3333 (Steinkopf, RSA, 900m).

I would be surprised if the Aloinopsis luckhoffii was really from Steinkopf. So do you believe the name or the locality? If the locality then perhaps Stomatium alboroseum has been misidentified.

Somehow I lost interest in these plants, but I took care of them anyway

Stomatium alboroseum?
