How to Grow Cactus from Seed (A beginners guide) |
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 июн 2024
- There are different ways on how to grow cactus seeds. When done correctly, this is the method that I find requires the least amount of time in caring for seedlings. This is a beginners guide that shows one simple method of sowing the seeds, explains the basic care requirements, and shows possible problems/obstacles that may be encountered as cactus seedlings grow. When the seedlings are big enough, it is time to give them more room and the pricking out/transplanting of cactus seedlings starts. Patience is the key in growing cacti from seed. But it if you are up for the challenge, you will find that this is an economical way to grow your cactus and succulent collection. As a hobbyist, it is a rewarding and a very fulfilling experience as well.

For those asking for online source of cactus seeds, I only know of 2 websites - cactusstore.com (I only tried them once) and starastrophytum.com (suggested by a friend, but I have not personally tried them yet). 😉 if you become a member of the Cactus and Succulent Society of America, you can get access to purchase seeds from their Seed Depot. Feel free to suggest websites that sell seeds which you have tried and had a good experience with. It will be useful information for everyone.
I ordered from unusualseeds.net. It takes a while I think they are in a European country. I’ve ordered from them in the past and had good germination success that’s where I got the seed for my desert roses which have done really well
Barry the cactus also sell a mix c
Thanks!
I found seeds at my local hardware store! I guess we’ll find out if they grow!
@@aimeejones1195 I have not been lucky enough to find seeds at my local stores.
Word of warning - Growing cacti from seed can become addicting! Especially once you start seeing good results and growth of spines 🌵
Hahaha. That is so true. 😄
Yea I agree I only had one before now I have like twenty 😅
*addictive
Yup. I started with 4 Euphorbia obesa's. now i have 180. LOL.! I love to pollinate them since they are male & female plants and capture the seeds since they catapult through the air. Pure addition like Melkjor says! hehe.
@@koaukeg2108 😂 congratulations we’re in the same boat you and I haha!
So far, this is the most comprehensive video on sowing seeds that I've watched. Happy to have found this video. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. I’m happy you liked it. 🙂🌵☕️
I agree. Thank you for making and sharing the video. Great job!
I've seen a lot of 'how to grow cactus from seed'-videos, and they have always left me with a bunch of questions. You basically answered them all in this video. This was very thourough and informative; the best video on the topic so far. Well done! Thank you very much. Keep up the good work!
You are very kind. Thank you. 🙂 If you grow cactus from seeds, I wish you the best and we would love to hear your experience as well. Cheers from Las Vegas. 😃🌵☕️
Same, i searched so hard for someone
to tell me what to do after i grew them inside the bag they all just showed how to grow them but not what to do after, so thankful !
Do you have a video of different succulents growing by seed.
@@IAmHumanJake Ouuu that'd be awesome
@@CactusCaffeineoh snap... the seeds i talked about might have come from a mountain not far from LV. My wife asked me to stop on the side of 15 snd try to get red barrel seeds. I bet you already know all about this. Lol 🤠
I never thought i get into cactus growing, and here i am...
Haha. Same here. Enjoy!
I used your method to start Astrophytum asteria super kabuto seeds with great trepidation as it was my first time. Besides your techniques, I used a heat pad in the evenings. I probably should have started to sow with a small sample of these designer cactus seeds but went all in with my 70 seeds I recently purchased on Etsy. Well, I just saw that the seeds are starting to germinate after five days! So excited and thank you for the beginners guide! I looked at many YT videos and yours was simple, easy, and thorough in explaining the process for me in the states (CA). Yay! What a relief! On to the next steps. Thanks, and keep making your insightful videos!
Same thing happened to me . With Astrophytum they are great . Bought them at etsy . How much light did you give them ? Mine germinated just out of direct sunlight .
Great work 🤝💐
Thank you so much for stopping by! Your channel is an inspiration to me. 😊
@@CactusCaffeine 🙏💐🤝
Very good video for beginners. Unique, informative and encouraging. I need much patience. I thought it's easy and fast growing plant. Many point I noticed from this video. Thanks for enlightening me about the lifestyles of succulent plants. I was born and brought up in a coastal region and rain forest region respectively. And trying to grow a dessert plant. Wow.. What a challenging task for me. Yes, I accept the challenge. 👍
Lovely video. Thank you !
This video has inspired me to try growing from seed. Bought some Arizona rainbow seed. Have week old seedlings. Thanks for you videos. Very informative. Have been keeping cactus for years but learn something new every time I watch. Thanks again!

Thank you for this very informative video!
Excellent video. Thanks
Just a tip for anyone trying to grow seeds. You can definitely pull them out of humidity whenever its required (fungus, rot, mass damping off). Common myth is that they need to adjust to low humidity. I pull mine out right after they germinate and i have over 95% survival rate.
Thank you for sharing your experience. 🙂
@@CactusCaffeine thanks. Your video is very informative. And i guess its a proven method! Doesnt really work for me. Haha.
@@claudekim7876hey if you happen to get this notification of my message, please reply as soon as you can! It’s been two years since your comment so we’ll see what happens lol 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
You mentioned her above “proven method” to grow cacti 🌵 in humid environments can be pulled out after sprouting, and that her method doesn’t work for you,
Would you mind filling me in on your method.? I’m about to begin a prickly pear grow. I gathered some wild seeds and I’m looking for any recommendations for instruction from someone personally instead of five video I live in Colorado. It’s currently going to be winter solstice in December and it’s basically a very dry cold climate here.
Please get back with me when you can. Cheers.

Great video😌👌🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟I enjoyed watching!
Thank you for watching. ☺️🌵
Awesome video, just had a seed pod appear on my mammarilia, gonna get all the still to follow this video and grow them on my windwsill.
This was informative and enjoyable. My favorite cactus are the edible ones. Currently living on the border of Texas, US and Coahuila, Mexico. On our small yard we have cactus that we call Nopal de Castilla (Prickly Pear Cactus). The variety that has super tiny, almost not visible spikes. We eat the pads when they are young and tender as well as the fruit, tuna as we call it.
Another favorite is Pitahaya (Dragon Fruit) and hoping your method helps us in having our first Dragon Fruit cactus.
Best Wishes!
Wonderful!
Great informative video, I learned so much. I will continue to watch more of your videos! Thank you!!!!!!
Thank you. I appreciate it. 🙂🌵☕️
Tank you Anna. Have a nice good cup of coffee.
