Growing Trichocereus from seed

I grow quite a few cacti from seed.  Here's how you can too.

Prepare your soil.  I usually use a 2 inch terra cotta pot (pictured below).  I fill with regular potting soil, perilite and basalt sand.  I then moisten and microwave to kill any grass seeds.  I then sow the seeds on the surface without pressing them down.

Next I put 2 of these pots in a baggie and set them in the shade outside.  This pot was basically neglected for 2 months or so after sowing and Voila!

If posible, you should  keep the pots in a place where the temperature can be kept around 25°C, or 33°C daytime maximum and 15°C night-time minimum.

Cacti from seed can be an economical way of growing your collection, and Trichocereus, or Echinopsis are a fairly easy way to get started.
