Tulista germination advice

Post by el48tel »

Before Christmas I planted some Tulista seeds in baggies in a propagating tray at 13 C.
Many have germinated. How long should I keep them in baggies? Now the temperature is rising in the GH because of solar gain, how long should I keep them in the propagator? The night setting allows for 6 C.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

I normally give 14 days from the first germination before I at least open the bag. Then about another 14 days before removing the bag completely. Don't let them dry out.

Should be ok in the propagator for a little while yet.
