Thank You! @valleylynn and @Dutchlady1 for welcoming me! I've already found a lot of good information on this forum.

Here are the seeds that I bought:

Echeveria Agavoides (25 seeds) http://www.ebay.com/itm/171226...

Echeveria Multicaulis (15 seeds)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/181306...

Greenovia Aurea (25 seeds) this one is a aeonium not echeveria
http://www.ebay.com/itm/181313...

Echeveria Mix (20 seeds)
http://www.ebay.com/itm/181305...

I can't wait for them to come! I will definitely document my journey of growing these. I've been doing a lot of researched on different websites and I seem to find some contradicting advice. Here are some things I'm not too sure about:

*Some sources say that echeveria seedling can't tolerate temperatures over 70degree f (about 20 c) other sources say that they need temperatures over 70.

*Another thing I heard that some people microwave the soil to kill mold/bacteria spores other sources don't mention anything like that.

*I've also read that some people uncover the pots right after the seedlings sprout while others keep them covered but just air the pants out a couple times a day.

What to do, what to do... Shrug! Glare

Any thoughts?? I'm all ears!

Right now I'm thinking that I've ordered enough seeds to maybe try a couple of different methods and see which would be the most successful.
