Growing Instructions
-
Soil Preparation: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix. Ensure the soil is loose and airy to prevent root rot.
-
Planting: Sow the seeds on the soil surface and lightly press them in. Do not cover the seeds, as they need light to germinate. Maintain a temperature of 65-75°F (18-24°C) for optimal germination.
-
Watering: Water the seeds lightly and keep the soil slightly moist until germination, which typically occurs within 2-4 weeks. Once established, water the plants sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
-
Sunlight: Provide bright, indirect sunlight or partial shade. Avoid direct, intense sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day, to prevent leaf scorching.
-
Fertilization: Feed the plants with a balanced, diluted succulent fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) for optimal growth.
