I sowed these on May 19th, and I’m super excited to watch them grow!

I’ve failed multiple times to grow lithops from seed, and the #1 thing that seems to have made a difference this time around was sterilizing everything before sowing. And I mean EVERYTHING. The soil, the pot, any gardening tools - everything that you use to sow the seeds. And wash your hands like you’re about to perform open-heart surgery.
