DISASTER!!!!!! I set the growhouse up a couple of days ago and arranged all my cacti in it. Everything was looking good up until last night,...
Thank you. I've been looking around online and noticed "growhouses" for sale at a fraction of the cost of a greenhouse. SO far as I can tell,...
Thank you for your help. There's a number of them, and some are unidentified. The ones I'm aware of are: Rebutia Pygmata Rebutia Fiebrigii...
