  • This small beef is holding strong and ready for its new home.
    Be sure to save and follow along to stay posted on any updates and further plant care tips!
    The bigger the cactus, the longer it will take to callous. If you are dealing with a HUGE beef, a drip tip can take up to MONTHS to out. So be patience and if you can, let it dry upright so if it does have some growth during this process, it’ll grow fairly straight.
    Let’s hope that this cactus and I can live happily ever after as long as I ensure the soil remains moist for the next few weeks.

I moved here from Indiana for work, and I seem to get a cactus as a gift from at least one person for almost every occasion. I have close to 20 now, oh and aloe too. I actually had one aloe bloom last year. I only saw that in the south west until last year.

    I have a question. I rescued a ponytail palm that did the same thing as this cactus. Since it’s technically a succulent, should I cut the dead bottom off and use sulfur fungicide or can I use that root starter stuff? I know I can’t root it in water. It didn’t have any roots either cuz it was jus5 hanging out in the pot.

      I had one last year that I accidentally allowed to stay on a very cold windowsill and it turned kind of brownish-red and looked horrible. I thought I had killed it. I moved her to a warm spot that still got natural light and within about 3 weeks, she was thriving again. She’s still doing great, and I had to repot this summer, as she started to outgrow her pot. They tend to be extremely resilient and forgiving of our mistakes. Hope yours pulls through! 🙂
