Growing cactus pads?

[TSchadel]

Depends on the species. Stay away from the FL species...they'll NEVER survive a KS winter. Old Mexico pads are the best...hands down. They can survive 130ºF in the summer and -30º during the winter...even though...I cover mine with a winter blanket here in SoCal!

okay! I will start to look where I can order some from that state... thanks!

Yeah, I bought some of that old Mexican pads from your source Dean, that vendor either sent crappy little pads that minimally made the sale technically honest, minimally.

I sell dried cactus chips, they work well, store long. I like plant propagation myself, but if you don't or want something consistent and high quality check it out.

I plug TFO in my Facebook listing so you can get a discount.

Awesome - thanks. Another question - can I start it indoors and move outdoors when spring hits?
