The weather here is a bit cool -1°C and very light snow falling. I slept in the last couple of days. By the time I get going you are gone. :) What you do today you will have to live with tonight |

Well Christmas cactus seems to grow easily, stick it in soil and keep moist. I've only had 1 other succulent grow for more than 2 years. I tried some from seeds and couldn't keep them going. I'll try more when I do the others. Sunflowers & pumpkins seem the easiest. I had some peppers, but I don't think I transitioned them well, they wilted soon. I do well from plany starts usually. The last few years I have gotten a Kung Pao pepper (~8-10"tall) and at the end of the year have 100+ peppers on it. It basically is a bush. Two years ago one regrew from the previous year and it took off. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

Cacti as of the past week: ~3 months old (start from 3 leaves), ~15 months old (from 3 & 1 leaves) Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

Wow, lots of chit chat :) Hi Hev and welcome Cosmicvandal. Nice Cacti banditwolf, I'll see if I can get picture of mine tomorrow. I forgot to turn it around occasionally so its grown at a jaunty angle. |

Very impressive banditwolf! Maybe next year I won't grow my billions of tomato plants and have a go at these cacti. Those flowering type are great. I've just picked the leaves up from bits that broke off from the displays in the stores. :P I've seen pitures of 50+ year old ones, they are massive.
