Re: Turbinicarpus
I thought it might be interesting to show some fairly typical Turbinicarpus roots:

Re: Turbinicarpus
very nicely grown Nino_G amazing they survive your cold winters I guess you keep them dry ? Also I gave up on M lutheyi But saw in another post you have no trouble , nice.
Re: Turbinicarpus
Thank you for the kind words Keith. Yes, I keep them bone dry during the resting period. They've received last water of the season at the end of September and won't get another before the end of April next year. Exception to the rule are several "winter hardy" species that will get first water at the beginning of March to simulate snow/ice thaw.
