Re: Website broken links

Might be similar to what happens me.

The links open in my 'Mail' app but I use Outlook as default and I have no way of seeing the actual email address.

Re: Seeking Mammillaria densispina

I can send you over one from Ireland if you want to risk it. These are from SuccSeed HO 326 in 2017. Not listed now. One at the back has darker spines. It's not very evident. I've never been able to find HO 326, H 326 or H 0326, listed anywhere. But it's supposed to be hardy. Charco Azul, Gto Flower...

Re: It's going to get cold.

If the heat comes from the ground then bubble-wrap on benches and this type of carry-on can't be of much use surely?

Re: It's going to get cold.

Whenever it gets cold I'm reminded of these informative articles by Philip Greswell.

Re: It's going to get cold.

I asked the same question on here before @Aiko as I don't really understand how fleece, paper and bubble-wrap work. And I've searched extensively on the internet. Outside in the garden they surely prevent wind-chill but inside that wouldn't be the case. It's probably got something to do with the way...

It's going to get cold.

How cold we don't know yet. https://www.bbc.com/weather/outlook It's time to take out the bubble wrap. I just lay it over the plants. Far too big a job to hang it inside the walls and roof. it's not the cold I'm afraid of as such, but the resulting condensation. I read there that some greenhouses ha...

Re: The Black Death?

Is there any way to treat bacterial infections?

I've posted here before that I just can't grow Lobivia jajoiana. Seedlings just turn brown like a bad RSM infection.
Adult plants that I've bought turn black like in the picture above.

I'm seeing some black marks on some Gymnocalycium now also.
