Such a timely video, I recently became very interested in SP and the more I learned it became clear that buying a random plant was unlikely to be what I was looking for. Ordered some seeds and a germination kit from you, looking forward to growing them! Your work is important

Thank you, let me know how it goes. 🙂

You showed the boiling water method before. Is the oven better, or just another process that you want to teach? The boiling water method seems easier with less equipment, and my only worry is the tub will melt.

The pasteurization method is a little more complicated, but it will fight much better against contamination.

hello! found this channel while i was looking for information about how to grow new peyote cacti from the buds of the mother. but i couldn't find any. could you enlighten me on this topic please, i am apparently helpless at this point :'c thank you in advance, and great video!

I ordered my seeds from sacred buttons earlier this year and after a week saw signs of life. After 6 weeks, i have 56 out of 75 seeds germinate which i am happy with. I come from a mushroom background and and pressure cooked my soil mix and obviously didn't use any fungicidal powders. I thought i was a genius when i plugged my seedling mat and temp controller into my light timer to get that temp drop lol Im using a 1000w aglex led light from amazon, has the uv an ir diodes. My research shows the dessert is a high uv index which is why i opted for this light. Once they are ready to go into pots i will add some supplemental uv lights from ac infinity. Have you done any experiments with uv light?

Yes, the spider farmer lights that I use contain UV emitting diodes. 🙂

Is neem oil enough to keep from contamination? Or if pasteurization is necessary, should I still use neem oil?

@SacredButtons

I've never used neem oil. If pasteurized correctly, nothing else will be needed.

Such a great video. I wonder if it's really necessary it being that sterile. Have done some experimenting or are you just cautios? Best regards

Working as clean as possible lowers the chance of contamination. If all of these simple steps are taken it is very rare that you will get contamination.

@@SacredButtons @whatsupdog666 The germinating containers are sealed to hold in the warmth and humidity necessary for the seeds to germinate. Unfortunately, these same warm and humid conditions are ideal for the propagation of mold and bacteria. This is why it is strongly advisable to pasteurize your medium. Keep up the great work, @sacredbuttons

Does the pasteurization not kill the mycorrhizae?

It may, but the seedlings will only be in this soil for a short while before being transplanted into fresh soil. It's more important at this stage to prevent contamination.
