Hey, I recognize those instructions!

#### Dave\_opuntiaface replied on 2023-07-05

I remember reading and thinking there is no reason this should be so complicated. Despite following only half of the instructions, I think I had 20 of 50 seeds pop. Note that I also had just read five other ways to do this and sorta jumped in.

i followed the instructions to a T and had 99% germinate. it’s awesome

Oh hey. I mean I can’t follow that many instructions because I’m usually five steps in and dropping stuff. It’s me, not the product or really detailed way for Lithops success - which was sage for me , but I messed up the cotton ball. Apologies for busting in :)

#### Cat replied on 2023-07-05

yeah the cotton ball seemed like a bad idea to me, i used the gravely medium it came with and they’re doing great in that

That’s great to hear. I won’t talk about mine anymore because there was little to no chance I could deal with 20 3-week old Lithops seedlings while simultaneously and abruptly moving 78 other plants to a new space. Here’s to the fall.
