Germination of

Epithelantha micromeris

Button Cactus: Pincushion Cactus, Mammillaria, Hedgehog Cactus

Epithelantha micromeris

Epithelantha micromeris: Fill a seed tray with a well-draining potting mix and sow the seeds on the surface of the soil. Cover them lightly with a fine layer of soil and water gently. Place the tray in a warm and bright location, and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination should occur within 2-3 weeks.

Some of plants may have very have specific germination requirements that may not be covered in these general instructions. 

Many seeds require pre-treatment before sowing which we try to list here when we can, but this information may not be present here.  Germination times and germination temperatures are to be a guide only.  Many factors can DRASTICALLY affect this.

 

It's always a good idea to research the specific germination requirements from multiple sources for each plant before attempting to grow them from seed.
