I wouldnīt recommend those, not sure why but I donīt think the cacti will like it. I think light and roots donīt mix well.

I use clear plastic cups all the time with no problem. one thing to consider..... when rooting certain plants in a glass of water the roots sure as hell do just fine even in direct sunlight. as long as the water is changed daily of course. roots don't grow in the ground to escape the light
