Titanopsis seedling care - advice please

Post by Karen-L »

this titanopsis (one of at least two) grew from a packet of random cacti and succulents. so far it seems to be happy, although i had to transplant it when it just had the seed leaves, as is was being eaten alive by tiny black mites. i have been giving it 'default succulent' treatment, i was wondering how to treat it as it gets bigger/older, as i gave two lithops i had 'default succulent' treatment and they died after a couple of years.

are titanopsis finniky like lithops or more like cast iron money plants (crassulas)?

Nice. A Titanopsis calcarea of some kind, I'm guessing. I grow these in full sun, with regular water when they are small but much less when they get bigger. Yours is still at the regular water stage.
