Lithops TERRICOLOR C254

Sowing and germination

• Before planting, the seeds are soaked for 5-6 hours or the planting container is sterilized with fungicide 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.
• It is necessary to avoid waterlogging and complete drying out of crops.
• To avoid long-term retention of condensation, the container is ventilated 1-2 times a day for 10-15 minutes.
• Shoots appear within 7–20 days.
