An update : my d.scorpiodes collapsed after being exposed to near a`noon sun. The angle of the sun shifted & i was too busy to notice so the poor things got burnt. I was unable to save them.

If anyone tries, make sure it only gets early morn` sun until about 10-11a.m. only. Location s/be in grassy area where you can flood with water if it gets too hot & the grass can retain water & make it a lil` cooler.

I`ll have to hunt for another pot or 2. anyone going to YG ? :o)
