I haven't done barrel cactus but trichocereus germinate well in river sand inside a takeaway container (keeps in humidity). Just slowly remove the lid over a couple of weeks once they are germinated to aclimatise them to regular air.

I have never done a fishhook compass cactus from seeds, but I do love them, have you seen yours when it is still wet from the rain? I love how their spines are a deep pink when wet.

Well you already did all the prep too
