Yeah hopefully i can get these to full maturity, the seeds were so small im just proud that i was able to get them into pots lol, but besides that i had my first germination in 3 days! These are 3 pots but from 2 separate times. After these i wanna do other cool small south african succulents.

Do conos grow quickly? Or are they slow like some cacti?

They aren't thaaat slow. In a year you should have a 1cm - 1 inch plant.

I think that they are like lithops in terms of growing although they germinate in 3-5 days which is always nice but yeah around a year old is when theyre ready
