OK UPDATE :

so far the two little bare root  Short Spine Peruvianus X Physco0 seedlings I bought on ebay . are doing fine . There neer a sunny window in a warm room . 

I used some Shultz cactus soil mix 50 /50 with pearlite  I threw in some Azmonite  for minerals ,

 I planted them each in a small dollar store SIPs pot .

I waterd sparingly with a spash of root stimulator in the water .

I will post later about the root stimulator . its a product I use with my new bare root fruit trees and figs .

thought I would try on cactus .

OK Sending GOOD KARMA to all tthat offerd advice .
