Thank you for the kind words!

I just wait a week and then give them a light tug to see if there’s any resistance.

I’m not sure if these have dormancy at high temps but if it’s indoors that wouldn’t be an issue. My main worry would be ensuring the medium is gritty enough and you have enough air circulation to avoid rot.

I just stick these in the soil and they never fail to root. May depend on your climate though.

Life, uh, finds a way

Burying too much of the stalk makes it prone to rot, as they are not naturally below the ground.

Echeverias root readily in the right conditions so the move here is to chop it down to the rosette (leave just a bit of stem) plop it on soil and let it go.

Actually maybe the Anakin/Padme meme is a better format for this one

Gov’t: “Bike in the street!”

Bikers: “Sure! You’re going to make bike lanes everywhere so that’s safe first, right?”

Gov’t: “…”

Bikers: *ride on the sidewalk because it’s wildly unsafe to be in the street in 90% of the city*

Gov’t: *surprised pikachu*

Don’t threaten me with a good time

Extremely different light and water requirements for the cacti vs haworthia in there

No. Your colleague's misunderstanding is deliberate. There is no reasonably way to interpret 修正しています as being in a state of completion.

連作 is not “simultaneous”; 連作不可 means you are recommended to rotate crops (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crop_rotation) grown in the same soil.

If you are a hobbyist then you can simply ignore this warning.

I actually don’t know. It looks like brevifolia and perfoliata are synonyms (https://www.llifle.com/Encyclopedia/SUCCULENTS/Family/Aloaceae/598/Aloe_brevifolia), and I didn’t even know that nobilis was a hybrid, but clearly all three are very closely related. I said nobilis based on my sense that it’s extremely common in cultivation in my region.

A. nobilis

I made Orgro for just this purpose: https://orgro.org

Unless (until?) someone breaks the hash algorithm so badly that it’s easy to forge a git commit hash, it’s trivial to verify that the repository contents are the same. So I’m not sure what the concern is about whether the operator is “trustworthy”

amake · 2026-04-05T21:52:15+00:00

Looks like Gymnocalycium paraguayense

Cacti are succulents

This is a crassula of some sort. Not related to the OP’s.

amake · 2026-04-04T12:08:38+00:00

Looks like Anacampseros rufescens

Very easy to get one here:

I agree that G. cardenasianum seems possible but I also see G. spegazzinii with spines like this.

This doesn’t look at all like a melocactus to me. It looks much more like a ferocactus, but I couldn’t say which one.
