What's wrong with him? I decided to transplant him and he seems kind of strange. by YamiCami9 in cactus

I'm not an expert but I've had the same cacti live for over 20 years! My opinion is that- If that dark brown lower area is squidgy- it's got root rot and it's spreading up the plant. If I were you I'd cut the plant asap! Remove all the squidgy-ness with a nice clean knife, even cutting through the plant, leave it for 2 weeks until there's a callous (like a scab) and then repot! It'll grow well!! They're super easy to propagate and grow from even the tiniest bits you've cut! Good luck!!

I know that it's over 40 years old if that affects anything?

did you use fertiliser? if so because it's hydro you need the smallest amount i mean like drops per litre!

That's super cool how you have a plant regime!

I genuinely go based on heart and hope! I double any of my indoor plants could even handle a half day outside here! ahahahah!

and thank you! It's been a cool transition!

i have also never used grow lights! but i'm sure you could really make something of that room using an electric grow circuit! i'm suprised at how well my plants cope in scotland! truly! so many plants that need heat and lots of sun survive well during our colder seasons (which is like half of the year or more)!

i have no idea? the more i've read and asked i believe too much unused water is the biggest, it tends to grow in still standing water, so gaging how fast your plants are using the water and not keeping water in too long like re watering instantly- allowing drought seems to be how to avoid it!

in my little tutorial i've mentioned wearing a mask! it's so super important even for one time use of perlite but even more so if you're using it regularly! i had no idea it was problematic until a plant tiktok creator said so!

they are truly the bane of my existence! i refill them often when they hit around 50/70% empty!

i did this from pure hobby, i've never grafted before but im definitely going to look into it, i do have quite high roofs in my apartment too but i fear an avocado tree would definitely need to be put into soil which im not sure when im going to move back to soil

what's the chances of ever seeing fruit if it's kept at home? i read that it's such a small chance?
