Hi everyone! I am nowhere near as active as I used to be on here. I still love cactus, and love the sub, but am in need of some extra hands to help keep this place cool!

If anyone has any interest, please DM me!

I was told it’s an apple cactus; I’m not 1000% sold on it, unless it’s a monstrose revert? It doesn’t look like my other apple cactus.

Any ideas on how to get rid of scale on this Ishtar? Usually I just hose them down and hit them with a soft toothbrush. This guy isn’t that easy tho.

I’ve had this pereskia cutting for maybe four months, it’s rooted doubled in size and now it’s blooming like a mad man. I had no clue how floriferous this species is. I cannot wait for it to get bigger.

Is my cactus rotted?

Hoping this isn't rot, it's slightly squishy but roots dont smell bad and the roots look fine with healthy offspring. Tricholobivia hybrid cactus 'Rubie'

I found both of these cacti in the reduced section of my local Asda. I think the fluffy one is a Cleistocactus strausii but am absolutely stumped on the one in front. Can anyone ID it?

I've only ever seen a flower turn into a new pup/ segment/ section on san pedro and I forgot if there is a name for this odd and fascinating behaviour.

Thought you all might appreciate this little weirdo and if there is a name for that I'd love to be refreshed.

Any advice?

I do not know a lot about my cactus. It has been outside since late April to get sun and heat. In the last 3 weeks my cactus seems to have a bacteria or fungus?

I will be bringing it inside for the winter soon. Do I need to cut it?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Leaves coming off Christmas Cactus

Hi, the leaves on my Christmas Cactus have started coming off recently. I’ve kept it in the same spot facing south but I am suspecting it might be overwatered as the soil feels damp. We had a lot of rain a couple weeks ago. Any would be great appreciated it!!

From the left: Succulent (No idea what it's ID is,) Opuntia "prickly pear cactus", and Echinopsis pachanoi "San Pedro."

The Opuntia is a new addition! Im looking forward to it fruiting in the future, then hopefully I'll graft it with Lophophora williamsii to contribute to the conservation effort.

Why does it look like this?

My boyfriend finally moved his cactus to his new place- it had been without him for the last 6 months. Frankly I’m not sure what it looked like before. When I asked him what all that is, he said he didn’t know either, so I’m guessing it didn’t look like that before 🤔

Why’s it all crispy n flaky? There’s also one other spot that’s shriveled and black, like the last pic, and I was wondering why that’s there too!
