Thinking about going with Cactus gray BD. Do those that own one feel it has a green tint to it or is it totally gray?
It's totally gray.

But has has a green tint. ;)

I love it. A lot of people compliment on the color. But just as others have mentioned, bright blue bird day, can see a little greenish/minty hue to it. Less sunny days, much more gray.

You can get a whiff of green every now and then. That being said, we went through 4 colors when ordering because we could only see them online and hated them in person. Cactus Gray was a lock when we saw it in person. We've had ours since October of last year and we get lots of comments on how much people like the color.

That is so funny, I plan to order this color, and I have seen a few in person, and I see a shade of the minty green, frankly I do not care, I like it!!
I ordered cg and I like it, but I wish I could have gotten the everglades desert sand on my badlands

For those of us who aren't partially or fully color blind, it's got a green tint to it. There's a reason it is called Cactus.

Owner of a cactus gray BL since August and I can say unequivocally that it is 100% gray with zero hints of green in any lighting situation. But that's just me.
He is correct. It's just him. :p

I just picked up my cactus gray badlands and I think it looks amazing. Everyone else is right that it really needs something contrasting against it to help your eyes pick out the green, or very bright sunlight. Standing by itself it looks mostly gray.

In just a few days I've gotten a ton of compliments on the color, and a lot of people asking what color it is, because it does seem to play some tricks with your eyes.

Green, baby, green! Cracks me up when people say cement gray. Just look at it compared to the cement and the grays on the building.

Even in the evening sun you can see the greenish tint compared to the cement.

Was seriously thinking about switching from black to cactus, but this whole green tint thing has me firmly back to black.
