That Stenocactus must be a real pain to handle!
It is! It's a beauty so I just have to use my welding gloves and deal with it
Gymnocalycium and Mammillaria are so much kinder
There are plenty of painful and annoying-to-handle Mammillarias though
True! Better to put them into a suitable pot once and never touch them again
The ongoing annoyance is weeding... sometimes I just get pliers
Weeding in winter when the soil is really dry and loose is a good trick
Well, if the weeds stay a manageable size...
