Default YG Cephs - Any updates?

Hi everyone,

I don't have one but am curious how is everyone progressing with theirs? Please highlight your growing conditions and if you repotted the plant into new media. Thanks!

Default Re: YG Cephs - Any updates?

Mine from YG seem to be doing fine except it is very, very slow growing... but I think it is quite normal for cephs. Mine is grown in a terrarium under pl lights. I re potted it but I did not disturb the roots. I simply take the whole plant out including its original media and place in a bigger pot with new media to fill up the gaps.

Humidity is in the 80s and temperatures around 27 degrees in the terrarium.

Hmmm, so far both growers are growing Cephs under PL lights and have repotted th plants.

Anyone growing them in the original media and/or outdoors?
