#3 is a Euphorbia of the Medusa-head type, maybe flanaganii

Is that number 3 a cacti or be treated as a succulent? The shop owner told me they call it Medusa so I think that speaks for it but to be treated as a cactus, I dont see any spines or thorns or any signs it is a cactus what do you think?

Euphorbias are not cacti (they belong to another family) - but they (or at least this one) are succulents - so, yes - treat it like a cactus

No need to be sorry. It's alright you didn't know.
So maybe from now on 3-4 plants max per post and 2 photos per plant to show the characteristics

Your welcome alvionna. My brains is now half and half.
Half brain half normal growth.

Number 1 is a bit odd looking.
The shape is your typical echinopsis oxygona type of plant...but it actually looks like a trichocereus

Thanks a lot for the help guys, it means so much I promise that I will answer newbie question someday when I get expert too like you guys. I will research more thanks

Some recommend removing reverted (normal) growth from cristates as it does tend to grow at the expense of the crest. You can usually root these down and get a normal plant, but occasionally they may even produce cristate growth themselves. It's merely a matter of personal choice.
