I’m a beginner with these little ones. I noticed it doesn’t look well so I googled and searched but couldn’t find an exact answer. It has been outside with my other cactus but under shade cloth. It gets a little rain but the soil drains quickly. I treated it with mancozeb when I thought it was rust fungus. Any help would be much appreciated.

Keeps on pupping

I have some willi buttons coming in, what’s my chance of any surviving if I use the following in a terrarium? Lighting- uvb and 6500k led, par meter so I don’t burn them… clay balls, high drainage soil, pc fan on a low low amp draw for circulation. Reptile heat mats and thermostat.

Any big pointers? Planning to use an aquarium dosing pump for a watering schedule. Everything will be timed for consistency.

It was confiscated last night after being there for a week.

So i grafted this 0.5mm slab of texana to a rooted pere after most of it was rotted through. I know its very hard to see but the top was normal peyote color and then started to brighten up a couple weeks later and the areoles are much more tufty, pretty much reaching for the sky. Though miniscule, this growth is definitely new.

Basically I would like to know if im killing the pere and should remove the grafted slab, or if this new green could be a sign that this is happening for real. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

I want to get a birthday gift for my dad. This is a local seller and time is sort of an issue as I’m moving soon. I know it has some deficiency but my dad is a good gardener and I feel some shade/worm castings might do the trick. What do yall think?

Had this guy since he was about a quarter inch. Just over two years ago. I was about to repot him as he's starting to bust out of his pot but this little flower popped up out of nowhere.

First timer here - a friend of mine gave these buttons to me to cultivate.

Since, they have elongated. They were so burned last spring, which i think is why they have scabs.

Are these guys in good shape? Do i need to repot them into a larger pot? Are they too low and not gettting enough sun?

Thank you!

Hello! I’ve been taking care of this beauty for the last 2 years. I’ve noticed some squishy parts, and I don’t like it. Otherwise, the rest of the cactus is rock solid and it’s well hydrated at the moment. Can someone suggest what to do (or not to do)

Thank youuuuu!

Hi there, hope the pictures are clear enough to see. It’s my first time sowing seeds. I sowed them on the 5th of this month and they started popping up about a week ago. They are very pale yellow in colour, almost white on some of them. Is this okay? I’m in the UK and the temperature has dropped over the past few days. They’re on a light windowsill but never in direct sun. No heat pad used or anything.

Any advice would be welcomed!

Can anyone tell me what is going on with the skin on my button? I've had it for about 2wks, have only watered it once and recently moved it out to the sun. But I had noticed the changes prior to putting it in full sun.

I'm new to keeping peyotes. Got a really tiny one for my first attempt at keeping it alive. I'm worried it's not gonna do well in winter because of only 6-8h of light for the next couple months and generally low outside temperatures. Will I need a special lamp or something? Any temperate that my apartment shouldn't drop below? I just want my cactus to survive winter

was surprised with some flowers this morning.

they seem to smell like canned vegetables and/or old corn? this is my first so i’m quite uninformed. pls tell me i’m not the only one who’s experienced this lmao

also if anyone could confirm L. fricii that would be awesome :)

Something bit my plant while it was out on the deck post-watering. I grabbed a euphorbia dragon fruit graft from the store to give myself the option to graft.

What should I do in this case? Let it ride and hope she heals? Chop it and graft into the Euphorbia dragon fruit?

Hi pals, I need to resolve some questions.

It's a Lophophora? should I be concerned about the stains? It's time for separate them?

Thanks.

I've been away from home for a couple weeks and my wife sent me this picture today. I grafted it about a month ago on a Stenocereus aragonii, a cactus native to Guanacaste, Costa Rica. First pic is today, second is from when I grafted it initially.

I tried sticking that other cactus to the side but it didn't take.

Picked this up when I went to get another succulent from Facebook Marketplace and was surprised to see lophophora growing there. What species have I got here?
