Lithops MIXED

Sowing and germination

• Before planting, seeds are soaked for 5-6 hours in a weak solution of potassium permanganate or fungicide with the addition of stimulants (balanced plant vitamin supplement, natural plant growth stimulant, amino-acid plant fertilizer, anti-stress adaptogen solution or root development stimulant).
• The planting container is sterilized for 24 hours in a saturated solution, and the planting mixture is poured with boiling water or calcined in the oven.
• Next, they are sown in a shallow bowl with a mixture of 1 part leaf soil and 2 parts coarse sand and perlite at intervals of 2-3 mm, slightly buried and sprinkled with a thin layer of sand no more than 1 mm.
• They are moistened with a spray bottle, placed in a greenhouse or covered with film and germinated in the light, but not in direct sunlight at a temperature of 22-28°C.
• The seedlings need ventilation and watering.
• Humidification is still done from a spray bottle.
