Sowing Guide
Lophophora williamsii seeds should be planted in a seed germination mix with plenty of organic components. A 1:1 mixture of Coco Peat and Perlite works well.
Spread the seeds evenly in a sowing tray. Cover seeds lightly with some of the sowing medium to assist with root establishment.
Keep the soil moist, but not wet, until the first autumn after sowing the seeds, then reduce watering somewhat. Do not water at all during winter.
Ensure that the seeds and seedlings have plenty of humidity during the growing season, but not during winter.
The seeds should be sown early in spring to give them enough time to establish before winter. In South Africa, sow these seeds in mid-September at the earliest, and the start January at the latest.
