Cactus seeds require a balance between moisture and drying out, so it is essential to water them lightly. A general guideline is to water the seeds lightly, ensuring the soil is slightly damp but not soggy. Deep watering is recommended, as it ensures the roots receive adequate moisture. Drainage should be done using a pot with drainage holes and well.
Stan Griffin of Craig House Cacti shares his three top tips on growing cactus plants with success, including when to water and feed, and when not to. He also provides advice on how to take care of the plants. For over a year old cacti, water them once a month and let the soil completely dry out before watering again. Water only when removed from humidity.
For seedlings under plastic, no watering is necessary, although if the soil surface does dry out, lightly spray the plants. Cacti seedlings need more water than adults and should be kept moist but not wet. To water, give the plants a good soaking with a spray bottle.
Grow cacti in free-draining compost in full sun. Water sparingly between spring and autumn and stop watering completely for the rest of the year. At the beginning, keep an eye on the soil and mist with bottled drinking water if it looks too dry. After the lid is closed, water the plants regularly.

Hello I want to thank you for your suggestions for growing cactus from seeds. I had lots of luck and many sprouted within a week. Unfortunately I didn’t spread them out much and they are a bit too crowded on my first try. Now many of them are getting clear and turning brown. I’m not sure whether they’re getting too much water, not enough water or there’s a fungus involved. I’d appreciate your suggestions on whether to remove the the brownish ones, or how to treat the ones that are still green to help them survive and grow. I have photos if there’s a way to share them. Thanks again!
Hey mate just to let you know, Mancozeb and carbenzadim in the fungicide are’t the best to make contact with the skin or potentially inhale any powder that makes it into the air. I think usually they are used with protection like long sleeves, gloves, eye and mouth protection. As far as I’ve read; they turn into different chemicals inside the body that can lead to parkinsons disease and some other neurological problems or cancer.
