The Cataceas are part of my life, it is a communion between plant species and myself, each plant is a teacher for me, they show me that survival in their natural habitat is tough... but they are full of energy fighting against adversity, their Souls reflect their goodness in each flower and fruit full of life, genetically prepared for the subsistence of the species, many seeds to ensure that an embryo develops, is born at the right time and the ideal place to withstand the harsh environment that surrounds them. However, in the pots in our homes and nurseries, the panorama is different since many of these plants have lost part of their genetics, defying the Natural laws by adapting our intervention, we become their guardians and provider of food through irrigation. Some people and nurseries use both organic and chemical fertilizers to develop and make Cactaceae flourish... in my c So I fully trust the substrate that I put mineral in 70%, 80% and 90% depending on the species and to germinate seeds or root cuttings I use 100% mineral substrate I do not rush with the issue of flowers I just hope they have their development or intense or premature floral genetics to show me their beauty and bear fruit to germinate and propagate the species.
