Cool pics. Do you plan on removing the pups and rooting them on their own?

Thanks.  I'll leave them and let them grow.  In the future, I'll probably cut the tips and replant them while I tea up the bodies.

Oh, I'll get to indulging that red tar in a few months, I have some older extractions I need to eat first.  (Whoever missed that thread, the red t-shirt I used to strain the cactus bled into my tea.)  Actually when I evaporated it down, it assumed the typical dark brown color.

Yes, definitely use fertilizer and those would grow a lot faster, fatter, and more green if you used some better soil as well. The stuff you're using looks like it came straight out of the backyard dirt pile, doesn't look like it drains well at all either.

You're right, Mallacht.  The soil in the yard is clay, and it is exactly the opposite of what the experts recommend for these plants.  But most of my cactus manage to grow over a foot a year, so while these plants may prefer other types of soil, they do thrive in clay.

It's soo easy to make compost teas, you really should - you can provide your cacti with a -full spectrum- of vitamins/minerals by mixing into hot water, and feed the next day.  I was having sloow growth on my Night Blooming Cereus, and once I fed it compost/alfalfa tea it grew 1/3 of it's original height in a couple weeks.  Pereskiopsis had huge growth the day after trimming all growth off and transplanting.

What about using leaf mold with cacti?  I read that leaf mold will do WONDERS for your soil composition that compost cannot.  Even if it needs a well-draining sandy/soil, I assume it still works in a noticeable way.

Anyways, aerated (using aquarium pump constantly) tea with all organic liquid seaweed (or kelp meal), guano, blackstrap molasses, apple cider vinegar (I use unfiltered), epsom salt, garden soil, and alfalfa is what I use.  Go pick that list up, and you'll be set for awhile.  Then whenever you should, mix together into boiling water, and let sit/bubble warm for up to 24 hours. 

For smaller 1qt batches, instead of 5gallons, I've been going with this recipe:

3ml Seaweed, guano, blackstrap, garden soil
59ml alfalfa (you can get it as rabbit/hampster food at Petco)
2 ml apple cider vinegar, and epsom salt

Fill quart mason jar to 1000ml and let sit in a warm place for over 12 hours.  If not warm up to 24 hours.  Unless you can fit a bubbler into your qt. jar, then you will want to stir your jar to get oxygen to the bottom every so often.  If you held a constant bubble up the point it gets foamy, and is done, then you have 4 hours before the micro-organisms start to die.

Lots of lovely micro-organisms, a growth hormone, vitamins and minerals for your cactus.  Works for me.  Its too easy not to, for such results.
