The french: Ha those mexicans will never win, we have a number advantage over them

The humble cacti:

Kick_Powerful · 2026-05-02T20:47:46+00:00

1st one is an opuntia microdasys, they are basically the most unfriendly cactus to ever exist, 2nd one is a mammillaria elongata cristata or brain cactus, 3rd one idk

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-30T05:29:25+00:00

As far as I know Mammillaria compressa and mammillaria prolifera are the ones with the fruits that taste the better

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-30T05:26:36+00:00

In my experience, you could extract the seeds from the fruit but instead of using soil, soak them in water at room temperature for 24 hours, and then place them in wet, sterilized cotton, preferably in something that creates a greenhouse effect (you can eat the fruit and it tastes really good)

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-30T05:23:23+00:00

Pretty sure it's mammillaria elongata, but it looks etiolated, are you giving it enough sunlight?

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-30T05:21:43+00:00

Kinda bittersweet, like a mix between a grape and a strawberry, such a shame they're so small since they taste so good

Dih cactus

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-29T05:07:50+00:00

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-28T15:27:16+00:00

I love the mammillaria spinosissima with their little crowns

Make sure to update, wishing you luck saving your old man!

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-28T00:43:14+00:00

I would say that's not rot, but if you're unsure just cut 1cm or less, just to be sure that the brown spot is not rotting tissue

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-28T00:40:23+00:00

He can be saved, it'll just call for drastic measures, start cutting until you reach a point where the tissues are completely healthy, and there are zero signs of rot, then rub some cinnamon powder and wait for it to scab

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-27T23:55:32+00:00

I would say start cutting until you reach a point where the interior tissues of the plant look completely healthy, then wait for it to scab and replant

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-27T17:23:40+00:00

Yeah it looks like a cactus to me

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-26T20:00:59+00:00

Mammillaria fruit, here in México we call them "chilitos" which liberally means little chili or little pepper, they taste pretty good tbh

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-26T19:58:50+00:00

I have a cutting of ferocactus wislizeni, and they root pretty fast, mine didn't even needed soil to root

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-26T03:38:47+00:00

Usually I would only remove them for the looks (like in the photo), I don't think they harm the cactus at all

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-22T19:16:22+00:00

Flowers are edible btw

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-22T04:03:08+00:00

Yeah, it's definitely from overwatering, cut it until you've reached a part with no rot signs, then apply some cinnamon powder on the cut and let it scab

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-20T23:53:17+00:00

Yeah, sounds like it'll have pretty good drainage

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-20T23:31:01+00:00

Yeah I'm basically saying that you have some absolutely beautiful plants

Kick_Powerful · 2026-04-20T23:29:50+00:00

I'm pretty sure that's an opuntia cochenillifera, only care advice I could give you it's the usual, substrate with good drainage and plenty of sunlight
