• Cactus seedlings are very fragile on the first weeks and survival depends on how they are treated on that crucial stage; out of 100 of seeds in the wild only a few survive to an adult plant to produce seeds and start the cycle again. Obtaining a high percentage of adult plants from a batch of seedlings, depends on how each collector takes care of their seedlings.
• Water for seedlings is the most important item to keep them growing for first few weeks. Generally, most seedlings, which are 1 week old will die after 3 days of dryness. 2 month-old seedlings can survive for 1 week if allowed to dry. 6 month-old seedlings can survive for 2 months if allowed to dry. 1 year-old seedlings can survive for 5 months if allowed to dry.
• Planting instructions for 4"pot kit: 1) Clean with water and chlorine plastic pot, clear cover and label and wash with fresh water. 2) The soil can be sterilized for 2 hours at 250º F in an oven or a microwave but can be used without sterilization. I never sterilize the soil for my seedlings but some people like to do so. This step is optional--to avoid sterilization, all materials to be used need to be new, never used.
• 3) Fill the pot with soil and spray with distilled, reverse osmosis or pure rainwater to let soil flatten at the top. 4) Place to 1/8 to ¼ inch layer of Dyna Rock or crushed sea shell extra fine on top to cover the soil making a layer between soil and seeds. 5) Place seeds over the Dyna Rock. fine spray water the seeds well and cover with a clearcover
