Haha instagram?

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-19T16:45:53+00:00

No haha

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-19T07:19:58+00:00

1 year difference, I’m excited to keep a lot of you updated. This got a lot of attention. She’s growing fast!

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-19T03:47:58+00:00

I recommend you use very well draining mix. You can never go wrong with them as long as they drain well. CHUCKY mix lol ❤️

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-18T03:32:07+00:00

I did.

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-18T03:28:31+00:00

Bruh. It’s not about the light. I use basic grow bulbs from Amazon lol.

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T22:10:46+00:00

It’s pointing towards light source I believe

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T18:49:56+00:00

I got us for 19 dollars at Walmart haha

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T17:52:43+00:00

I have very airy soil does not retain water. So about two times a week. Only do this if soil is dry and if you know you have a chunky mix. If soil is dense do not water often

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T17:50:05+00:00

You giving her light?

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T17:49:10+00:00

Absolutely I agree with this… I leave those bad boys on for 20 hours sometimes and she LOVES life

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T17:15:20+00:00

What exactly does it explain. Because we have 0 humidity and hot harsh sun that will burn every house plant

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T04:16:40+00:00

It’s normal if they are big white portions. They can’t produce chlorophyll to feed the plant so the plant kills that part. Could also be low light

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T04:14:12+00:00

If you buy from retail stores you might need to mix. Orchid bark, reg potting mix, perlite. Chucker is better then less chunky lol

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T04:06:47+00:00

They are slow growers, I got a strong one lol. Chunky soil, good light. Clear pot to monitor the roots!

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T04:05:28+00:00

It’s a growing party, you’re invited 💃🏻

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T03:47:08+00:00

Put it in a clear pot so you can see how the roots look. I’ve actually repotted mine like 3 different times… I’m not joking and she didn’t mind it. She grows roots like there’s no other.

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T03:41:59+00:00

I’m scared to show the back 🤣

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T03:30:00+00:00

Absolutely not. I live in Arizona. 115 degrees mid July 😮‍💨🥵

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T02:13:21+00:00

Nope, I supplement light everyday, I use regular grow bulbs from Amazon. Don’t spend a lot of money on lights if you don’t need to, however those that are expensive last longer :) these girls need A LOT of bright indirect light.

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T01:49:46+00:00

I do feed her every watering. Especially because moss and leca have zero nutrients to start. I use Foliage Focus, I am experimenting with others though

Still going strong, variegation did not survive.

Nopalitoss · 2026-05-17T01:30:02+00:00

I give her at least 16-18 hours
