1) Select a small pot with good drainage holes. e.g. a standard 9cm pot

2) Fill pot 3/4 up with cactus compost (or make your own with mix of sand and fertiliser-free compost. Compost should be moist but not wet.

3) Make 0.5cm holes with a pencil, drop in a seed in each and gently fill hole with loose soil.

4) Cover the pot with clingfilm seeds. Pierce a few holes in the clingfilm

5) Place the pot at room temperature or warmer in a location that is well lit, but not in direct sunlight.

6) Keep the seeds moist. Sprinkle water over the soil every 10 days so the seeds don't dry out. Even when growing from seed, cacti do not like too much water, so do not water more than every 10 days.

7) After 4 to 6 weeks, you will be able to remove the plastic wrap. Keep the saguaro seedlings moist by watering once a month.
