Hallo zusammen,
ich möchte einige Sämlinge und gepfropfte Areolen durch den Winter weiter wachsen lassen.
Könnt ihr mir helfen welche Leuchte wie viel Watt und welche Heizung ich benötige ?
Ich hab ein Aquarium mit 60 x 30 cm.
Viele Grüße Gerd

Hi Gerd, I have a "Sunblaster Nanodome" which I use for winter growing. It is 55 x 28 cm and can be bought as a kit with the light. I use it with a seperate timer to turn the lamp on and off each day. For heat, it sits on top of an old, cheap base of a heated germinator, ( turned upside down ) . The cactus seedlings grow well, as you can see in the photo. I dont know if it is available in Germany.
Greetings - Rick

Hi, Martin, Welcome to the Forum. I'm also a new member at a similar stage to yourself. In my unheated greenhouse I often have to wait until the end of April before watering. I have many echinopsis and trichos which become frozen solid to -10c - Without any harm - but do need to be totally dry . Last watering at end of August ! Happy growing - Rick
