Cactus / retusus seedling

I have continued repotting of seedlings.

Ariocarpus seedlings are growing very slowly and some peoples called as "Living rocks".I feed a lot of water in summer under soft sunlight. This will give a better growing speed.

Retusus v major cv Daruma Royals have grown well and repotted.
I sowed seeds on 12/11/2006. The current diameter is around 9 cm. I lift the joint between tubercles and tap root from soli top. This can minimize the chance of rotting even if you fed a lot of water in summer.
