Lobivia BACKEBERGII

Sowing and germination

Seeds are sown superficially on a moist, well-drained substrate consisting of sand, perlite and fine gravel chips. The crops are covered with a transparent lid or glass. Ventilation is carried out daily and the temperature is maintained at 20–24°C. Shoots appear in 5–14 days. The maximum germination period is up to 25 days. Seedlings are planted in separate containers and gradually adapt to brighter light.
