Growing my own cacti

I have grown my own cacti from seed for about twenty years now. It was something that I had wanted to do for a long time and one day decided that I would buy a packet of seeds the very next time that we went to the garden centre. They are remarkably easy to grow, although they take a while to start growing and you never think that they are going to turn into a cacti plant . As of yet though I have never grown one that produces a flower.

I hope you get some flowers eventually. I also like growing things from seed.

I have lots of cacti at home. But I have not grown them from seeds but from cuttings.

I was going to ask where you got cacti seeds from but you've told me now.

@Traceyjayne Congrats to you. I would say I have a black thumb for growing cacti.

I love to grow things from seeds in my garden. Right now I am out of seeds to grow and many pots are empty. Waiting for lockdown to get over and then I can buy some. I have a cactus for many years now and it has been flowering since last few years.
