The first way is to fold a piece of paper you put the seeds on beforehand and gently, but evenly put it down by tapping the paper.

How do you grow Mesembs?
Mesembs require a loam-based compost with the addition of extra drainage material such as horticultural grit or perlite. They all like good light conditions and plenty of ventilation. Some are relatively cold-hardy and can even survive mild winters outside. Most will survive temperatures down to a freezing point.
