San Pedro grow kit








Contains everything you need for growing your own San Pedro cacti:
- 20 San Pedro seeds (Trichocereus pachanoi)
- potting soil
- coarse sand
- drainage gravel
- grow container with lid
- perlite
- instructions about how to grow your own San Pedro cacti
Usage
Make 10 small holes in the bottom of the container. Fill the container, first with the gravel then with the mixture of soil and sand.
Put the seeds on the earth and press them gently with a pencil slightly into the earth, but not all the way in! They still have to remain visible. Spray into the container until the earth feels well moist and close the lid of the container.
Put the container in a warm place, for instance in an electric blanket or next to a heater.
HumidityAfter one to three weeks the seeds will germinate. Until then, make sure the earth is damp. After about eight weeks it is time to make holes in the lid. After another two weeks make some more holes so the small cacti can slowly get used to dry air. Another two weeks after that it is time to open the lid. Keep the earth moist for another 2 months. After these two months you should give them less and less water. Make sure the earth has completely dried out before you water them again.
LightingDuring germination and initial growth of the mini-cacti it is best to use fluorescent tube lighting. Only afterwards (indirect) sunlight can be used.

“Bought the kit sometime (maybe 18 months) ago and started to use it now:
- Container melted in the Microwave :-( 30 Minutes as shown in the video is too much, also with low power! How low does the microwavepower have to be?
- I´ve been surprised to hear that it takes around 10 years to build mescaline. That has not been mentioned here :-(”

“Hello,
Some time ago I bought this pack, because I was bored and needed to do something. So I planted the cactus on October 19. Now about two weeks later there are already 15 of the 20 coming up. I think another few days and all 20 will be growing. The are about 5 mm in length and 2 mm wide. The look very green and healthy. I water them every day standing in the window. I know the guide says don't put then in the window for the first year, but I think that is bullsh*t, because in nature the are in the sun too =D.. The room where the grow is like 20 / 25 Celsius.
Thanks Azarius!

Hallo,
Een tijdje geleden heb ik deze kweekset gekocht omdat ik niks te doen had. Toen ik het pakketje binnen had, heb ik ze gelijk gepland. Dat was op 19 oktober. Nu ongeveer twee weken later zijn er al 15 van de 20 opgekomen. Ik denk dat over een paar dagen de rest ook op komt. Ze zijn nu ongeveer 5 mm lang en 2 mm breed. Ze zien er groen en gezond uit. Ik geef ze elke dag wat water en ze staan in de vensterbank. In de handleiding staat dat je ze niet in de zon moet zetten, maar ik denk dat het onzin is, omdat ze in de natuur ook gewoon in de zon staan (en in Nederland is de zon ook niet zo sterk). De kamer waar ze staan is het ongeveer 20 tot 25 graden.
Bedankt Azarius!”

“I planted the seeds 10.11.2005 and now 23.01.2008 I have 11 fine young cacti. Don't remember if the kit has changed since then, but at least the instructions were different. I don't remember heating the soil... not sure did I even have perlite. But it worked great anyway. Though due to the moisture, a slimy alga like thing grew on the soil after just few weeks, but my supercacti woudn't be beaten by something like that. After I removed the lid, the slimegrass soon hardened up and I had to remove it and replant the cacti.
The sizes of the cacti differ a lot, but the bigger ones are around 13cm(could probably be bigger if is wasn't for my bad parenting). But since I placed them under a "proper" lightning of 3 ESL-lamps and started giving them cactus nutrients, they have tripled their size, if not more. And that was just 5 months ago. The growth is looking great right now. I even named my babies since they are all so different.”
