TheDoctor Welcome to the ninth week for my peyote (lophophora wiliamsii) cacti’s! They’re doing pretty well and I think the last month they didn’t received as much sunlight as they could’ve absorb, that’s why they are not that big yet, now I put them in indirect/direct sunlight. The place they now have is a lot brighter🌵👍

TheDoctor They’re doing good. But you need to keep in mind that I’m growing them in kind of a ,,rough“ way, so they don’t receive artificial lights or so, that’s why they’ll be smaller than other seedlings at this age. But I’m quite happy with that because they’re so damn cute haha

TheDoctor Some small rust infections on my peyote babies, but nothing to worry about. I’ll open the lid of they’re box now so the humidity lowers a bit and the fresh air will fight the fungus.

Yo Doc! Thank you for posting this dude! I recently picked up some Peyote seeds from rare exotic seeds but have been hesitant to start them. It seems like the germination period is pretty difficult. What kind of soil did you use? I have some miracle grow succulent soil but I'd rather get something I know that works since I have a limited amount of seeds. Keep up the god work dude! Best of luck🌵

@JakeNBake520, Thank you bro! I used a nearly 100% mineral soil, so if your succulent soil is made out of minerals it should be fine!
