Never done it, but I assume put them just under the surface of some well draining soil suitable for growing cactus and lightly mist every now and then to keep just the surface of the soil slightly damp. That’s what I did for San Pedro seeds

You can also research "take-out tek" which is another way to germinate cacti seeds.  I've had success using this technique with pure vermiculite as the medium, nothing else.  I put vermiculite that is around field capacity into a small deli container, close the lid, and put it on a heat mat.

Cacti like San Pedro or Lophs germinate quicker than what you might expect if you put them in the right conditions.

Yes, I did this as well. I didn’t need the heat mat though because I germinated during a hot summer. Put the lid on a take-away container and drilled some holes in it. Perfect little humid environment

You have to buy some seed

Start by singing thankfully or hum to your seeds. Make the seeding into a short and simple ritual. These are intelligent and living beings, so treat them like you do your best of family and friends. So -

Thank them for coming and wish them beautiful growth toward a long and shared life together.

I made up some fast draining potting soil, mostly sharp sand, a little tiny gavel, and a bit from my compost pile for nutrients.


Then I seeded the surface of a small pot, barely sprinkled with fine shifted sand and compost, got it all wet and covered it with saran wrap. This was summer so around 80F. I put that in partial sun so the saran wrap steamed up.

I believe the seeds are photosensitive, so don't sink them too deep. A dust cover is enough.

Then when the seeds sprouted, I mist watered from above with a little chamomile oil in the water to prevent damping off. This works very well.

When the weather cooled off, I left the seedlings dry all winter and started watering again around May.

I have four now from different seeds. My first one is about 18-20 years old and flowered twice for the first time this last summer of 2023.

Anyway, this works for me. While a heat pad might be a good idea, I didn't use one.

If you grow a few, they graft nicely onto a San Pedro tip and grow more quickly although deformed. Then comes the dilemma of slicing them off and rooting them again.

I prefer to skip the grafting now. These little beauties are fine just the way they are.

This is too critical. Just sow them. If they are fresh they will germinate easily. No need to dance or praise some holy spirits
