Thank you so much!

Happy 40th!!! Again, more good info on saving a cactus with rot problem. They certainly are amazing. Have fun up on the ranch.

If I were to put my 2 cents in, I would offer this bit of advice. With most cactus, top dressing like fire glass will hold moisture in and make them rot when normally they would not. I like to leave my tops open, or with pumice or lava rock if I must have a top dressing. Happy anniversary! pretty great stuff there!

[@ceekaylongbeach]

Yes, I learned that the hard way too. Thanks.

Congrats, and great tips as always! When repotting cacti, try incorporating pumice or perlite into any soil mix to improve drainage and avoid rot. Hopefully, this helps, especially with your beautiful mammillarias. 🌵🥳🎉

Happy 40th. I adore my spiral cactus and was wondering why she stopped twirling, I moved her and she's still good but readjusting, makes sense. 10 spirals and going strong. Enjoy your celebration!

[@autumnsky9807]

Happy Anniversary!

[@shellyjene2066]

Happy anniversary!! My 4 foot pilosocereus rotted and I cut to healthy tissue, let it harden off and planted in clean dry dirt. How long should I wait to water it?

[@LauraEubanks]

Until roots form. Give it a little tug from time to time until you’re confident that roots have started.

[@createandbehappy9640]

What size fire glass do you use? 1/2 or 1/4?

I had a small spiral cactus for over a year and all of a sudden it did this. Started to rot and I don’t know why. I tried to save it too late 😢 I grew it inside on a very sunny window and its roots were very dry when I tried to replant it but it declined faster. I love the spiral cactus but because they are expensive, I don’t know if I want to try again.
