Looking at ferrocactus and echinopsis among others.
If raising from seed do I need to wait until spring to sow?

if you have a heat mat then you can start seeds all year round. if you are relying on natural temperatures waiting until spring is a wise choice Wink

Cool. Thanks Lewis.
I'll stick to seedlings for now and then start playing with seeds in a few months.
