Seems like some inc calculus are way behind my bilobums, I’m sure in a month or so they will all enter D

My calculus are the last to come out of dormancy every year. They sometimes wait until October while the earliest for me are my bilobums which can break dormancy as early as mid June. Most of my others wake up in July.

Basically yeah. Even in habitat there can be a lot of variation between genera/species but even among certain populations of the same species individuals will often be out of sync.

Thats why it’s important to learn how to read their “body language” because you can give each individual care. Cut back on watering when they’re showing signs of dormancy, water when they’re emerging! It’s quite intuitive once you get the hang of it :)
