Question
Make your own cactus garden by collecting pieces cut from different kinds of cacti. Grow the variety in one single flat container or in separate pots.
Solution
Materials needed:
- Pieces cut from different kinds of cacti
- A flat container or separate pots
- Cactus soil mix
- Gravel or small stones for drainage
- Gardening gloves
- Watering can
Steps:
To create your own cactus garden, start by collecting healthy cuttings from various types of cacti. Choose either a single flat container or separate pots, ensuring they have drainage holes. Begin by placing a layer of gravel at the bottom for proper drainage, then fill with a well-draining cactus soil mix. Plant the cactus cuttings upright, spaced appropriately to allow for growth. Lightly water them and ensure the soil dries out completely between waterings. Position your cactus garden in a sunny spot and occasionally rotate the container or pots to ensure even sunlight exposure. Regularly check for signs of overwatering or pests. Enjoy the beauty and diversity of your thriving cactus garden.

| The most obvious outcome of the reproduction process is the generation of individuals of similar design, but in sexual reproduction they may not be exactly alike. The resemblances as well as differences are marked. The rules of heredity determine the process by which traits and characteristics are reliably inherited. Many experiments have been done to study the rules of inheritance. |
