    Your plants could use some more light. Repost some more pics of them in a few months growing under stronger light.

    Hi,
    These are my opinions about the Id's of your plants:
    71, 72 and 73: Astrophytum ornatum
    74: Echinocactus grusonii
    79: Notocactus leninghausii
    65: Gymnocalycium mihanovichii cultivar, will die soon if not grafted as it doesn't contain chlorophyll
    62: Myrtillocactus geometrizans
    40: Mammillaria rhodantha or related
    28, 29, 38: Opuntia microdasys
    25, 26: Notocactus sp.
    16-18: Mammillaria elongata

    And the same remark as given above: your plants need SUN!!!!! Cacti are no houseplants.

    hey, thank you for all your ids, very helpful, the red cacti pieter was talking about, is already grafted, i just buried the graft to make it look better.

    That might not be such a good idea. Buried, or almost buried, grafts are used on some plants to give them a more natural appearance, but only where the graft has been used to replace roots that are sensitive to rot, or to speed up growth. In your case, the stock is the only source of photosynthesis and the plant will die if it is not exposed to light.

    67 Crassula
    66 Haworthia
    38 Opuntia
    14 Ferocactus latispinus
    10,11 Echeveria
    9 Agave
    Indoors, give as much direct light as you can, keep dry for the winter, and keep cool if possible. After danger of frost, move outside, and gradually increase light levels.
