What do you mean with "woody"
Title: Re: astrophytum superkabuto snow
Post by: fanecchissimo on Monday, 12 December 2011 - 09:35:14
i mean fibrotic... like wood...

i see those cracks and i asked myself if it was due to the stock, too strong, or if it is due to a rigid form of the scion...

i have one v type own roots wich has similar cracks and i am not selecting it anymore to avoid plants that tend to crack...

PS: just to be sure you do not get offended, it is just for curiosity, to undestand better your beauties  :)

No problem, fenecchissimo, asterias Superkabuto crack sometimes, the plant comes from Thailand, maybe the grafting stock was to strong, I don't know. The plant is not "woody", it is a normal white asterias body. I did not make new cracks since it is in my greenhouse.

ok, so crack were maybe due to excess "pumping" in the producer greenhouse.

nice!

 ;) Hi,
I have a qustion if these SNOW plant can even live without being grafted - I mean there is no usually any green place on their surface at all to be abble to make some photosynthesis  :-X  :o

Post by: fanecchissimo on Tuesday, 10 April 2012 - 17:02:12
they grow really slow and need full sun, but mine can live with  a buried stock. so they probably live with no stock at all
