Cacti are sensitive to cold and prefer warm climates and sunshine. With proper cultivation at the right temperature, even beginners can easily get started and enjoy watching them grow slowly.

Temperature: Above 20°C (25°C recommended) |
Seeds above the soil * indicates that sowing does not require covering with thick soil or should be done shallowly. |
|
Avoid soil drying The soil must be kept moist. If it is too dry, the seeds will not be able to absorb water and will fail to germinate. |
Germination requires sunlight. |
Bury soil
|
Scatter the seeds evenly on the soil, making sure they don't overlap, and then gently press the seeds and soil together with your fingers. |
Post-germination management
Water gently with a sprayer after germination and during the early growth stages to avoid washing away the seedlings. Water thoroughly only when the soil surface is dry.

Manage it in a sunny and well-ventilated place. Place it in a sunny, well-ventilated location. Direct sunlight can cause the soil to dry out easily, so water it frequently and check the soil moisture level. |

Keep 1 seedling (thinning). When the seedlings grow to about 2 cm tall, keep one strong seedling and remove the others. |
Reasons for germination failure
Reason 1: Temperature
Germination temperature is 20-25°C. Have you been able to maintain this temperature?
Reason 2: Soil moisture (dryness)
If the soil moisture dries out, the seeds that were originally moist will become dry, and the germination rate will decrease.
Reason 3: Excessive soil moisture
If the soil is too wet, the seeds will not be able to breathe and will rot.
Reason 4: Individual differences in seeds
If the seeds are too old, the germination rate will be poor.

Causes of plant wilting
Reason 1: Overwatering (root rot)
Reason 1: Overwatering (root rot)
Another reason is over-care and excessive daily watering.
If the soil is too wet, the roots cannot breathe and will rot and die. The roots will shrink and disappear, turn brown, and become thin and fragile.
Reason 2: Dryness
If you forget to water your plants, the soil will dry out and the plants will wither.
The leaves will become dry and brittle.
If there is still moisture in the leaves, water them thoroughly.
They might be able to recover.
Reason 3: Lack of sunlight (Extended)
If the seedlings do not receive enough sunlight after germination, the stems will grow too quickly and eventually break under the weight of the flower heads, causing the plant to wither. Make sure the plant receives ample sunlight and avoid overwatering.
Reason 4: The temperature is not suitable
Every plant has its optimal growth temperature.
Both excessively high and low temperatures can slow down plant growth and even cause plants to wither.
