Nice plants! They're fat healthy looking little things.

I'd get a few reflectors of some sort around them to maximise the efficiency of your light. Anything white would help. I've used those silver coated plastic windscreen reflectors before and they work well, the larger ones for trucks are handy for that. You need to keep the air circulating though.
 
It's a 120w "plant light." Whatever that is. I'm gonna upgrade it soon.
 
One of them is getting a disease or dying or something. It was fine one night and this happened after i went to sleep after putting a cardboard box around them to shield the light. The others are fine. Even the ones in the same pot. This little girl is in 50/50 perlite/organic soil. Any idea what is going on?

I attached pictures at the bottom.

Yeah, I've got a bunch of seedlings going too. They grow quite easily from seed if you use a heat mat under the flat. I got some really nice seeds from Sacred Succulents. They've got some real nice seeds available. I got a bunch from IcarosDNA too. A bunch of wild harvested peruvianus. Haven't started any of those yet as I'm getting ready to move to California. It will be a much better climate to grow them in down there.

I'm gonna start grafting some to pereskiopsis once I get down there too. This seems to work well for boosting the growth of trichos.
 
So I just put this little sick guy in his own pot and I'm gonna take special care of him.

@ BecomeTheOther
Yeah, I'm glad i bought them. I have my peyote and torch seeds waiting to be germinated now too. I can't wait for the Yotes. I want to start grafting too. That will be cool.

@ nicechrisman
Sweet!! I was born in California. Long Beach.
 
So, my little stressed cacti is doing great. Showing recent growth at a rate faster than the others! :surprised

Awww... mini mescalito in a jar...:thumb_up:

I'm taking lots of baby pictures! I'm like a cat lady now, but with cacti. I have tons of seeds too for williamsii, williamsii caepitosa, torch, and penis plants.

I also ordered a live penis plant. I can't wait to get it. Will post pictures.
 
Nice looking babies. I'd separate out the multiple ones from the same container and give them each their own pot. They will grow faster and stronger that way.

it was my understanding caespitosa doesn't seed.

is this mistaken?

on a less related note: GIVE ME YOUR CAESPITOSA! :p

I'm not sure. I think that they make a BUNCH of pups though. They grow in big bunches.

And... NO!!!
JK hehehehe. Maybe...

Okay. Thanks for the advise!! I'll do that.
