Please find for sale 50+ fresh seeds for Golden Barrel Cactus (Echinocactus Grusonii), also rather appropriately knows as Mother in Law's Cushion! It is fairly quick growing at first; then the growth rate slows down. Like most cacti they're drought tolerant and need very little care and attention to grow well. Not enough sunlight and over-watering are common mistakes. When handling, it's best to use gloves to protect your hands from the prickly spines. Germination Guide Prepare a seed tray or individual pots with a moist, gritty, free-draining compost. Gently firm down and level the surface. Scatter your mixed cactus seeds over the surface, taking care not to sow them too thickly Potting mix should be moist but not wet Gently sprinkle a thin layer of vermiculite or fine grit over the seeds, covering the whole surface of the compost . Leave the pot in a greenhouse or on a warm windowsill, loosely covered with a clear plastic bag to preserve soil moisture. Seedlings will develop within a few weeks. Remove the plastic bag and water when the compost becomes dry, but spray the surface with water regularly, to keep it moist. Allow the compost to dry out completely over winter to reduce the risk of rot.
