I tried the tea method for cacti, specifically Astrophytum. Those treated with tea germinated later, and to a lesser extent than the water soaked control. Maybe i should have used decaff to avoid the allelopathic effect of caffeine

Thank you for sharing this method.
I have several species I can't wait to try it with.
