chicken grit...hmmm...i'll give that a try for these new Jovis I have coming! I'll try setting them outside too.
I've also started working on my "list" of plants for trading etc. I feel like i may miss out on trading this spring since I don't really have many plants to offer in return, but I can't wait to see the process and maybe get a few new plants!
Hopefully my new jovibarbas will be here by Saturday and I will post pics as soon as they arrive! I'm also thinking of making a trip this weekend out to a local nursery that has a greenhouse with a pretty good assortment of succulents, but thats always a dangerous place to go- it seems i can't leave empty handed!
