Very nice!

Be careful with the Triglochs if you get a really raining spring/summer.

They are usually rainy here 😕 I'm not going to water these cacti at all.
Could you post pictures of yours? Can't imagine how they might have cracked 😯

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

It looks worse now,maybe time for it to start over with the three healthy (uncracked) 😉 shoots in the middle.

You could always cut the better parts of the tops off and start new plants. 🙂

Hopefully its just their normal hardening off and not rotting. Come spring they should balloon up again.

I'm worried about the color, but this is due to very little sunlight I guess.

The top pic, they look fine.

The bottom pic is hard to tell. 😕
