Cacti cultivating!

I have just started reading about the Melocactus Bahiensis, from which I have gathered and sowed seeds from last week.πŸ‘€

Aaand I am hoping I am blessed with a lucky charm for difficult plants (as I had success with the first Calathea I got when I knew nothing).πŸ˜…

Well. For anyone interested, some of my seeds have indeed started sprouting!πŸ‘ΆπŸ‘Ά I am so excited πŸ˜„ And also so nervous as all I am reading now is that this cacti is for experienced cacti cultivators. And I have never done this beforeπŸ˜‚

So wish me luck! And any advice is gratefully receivedπŸ˜„πŸŒ΅

Sorry for bad photo, but I don't want to open the zip-bag they are inπŸ˜… If you know they are there you might see one or two green dots (there are 6)πŸ™ˆπŸ’šπŸ’š

@MockingJay looks good, 🀞 best of luck. I did some cactus seeds many years ago but cant remember how they went πŸ˜‚
Adding pictures of the seedpods and seeds in the comments! It is the pink ones, the brown one turned out to just be a spent flowerπŸ˜…
Seeds devided into 3 pots with 25 in each.
Couple of new ones popped up today
Wishing you the best of luck. I’ve never had luck growing anything from seed.
@YesGoldentorch thank you😊 Well, it is fun trying, not so fun if it doesn't work outπŸ˜… but either way I have learned something about cacti in the prosess πŸ˜„
Super exciting! Congratulations!!
