A.ritteri

Post by Aztekium123 »

This is a great board. Let me also record one of my small plants.

This A. ritteri was sown in the winter of 2015. At that time, I had no experience and only one survived. This is the spring of 2016, can you see it? The small red ball in the middle is it:

2022:It looks ugly in 2022, but it is slowly recovering. In fact, since 2016, I have sown a lot of these plants, and now it looks good. But I still like this one I sowed for the first time.

I think I will always take care of this plant and hope it can grow up healthily.

Very nice seedlings! I sowed these for the first time nearly 2 years ago and to be honest I'm not so sure if they're still alive or just that slow (less developed than your November 2017 picture anyway!)

If they are still green, they are alive. They really are slow!
