They germinated in early june, from looking at the earlier posts they were up by june 9... today i've potted them up, and put the pots (except for the mother plant of course) back in the terrarium for humidity's sake. tiny, tiny, tiny!

At about 2.5 years old, the cacti grown from seed are producing their first seedpods. On the left is the largest of the two year olds, on the right is the mother plant.

You honestly just made me jealous! I'm adding a F. castanea to my next order of seed just because of this thread.
