Or how about posting a photo showing stubby little white things coming out of the bottom? That would be wonderful to see -- new roots! Best of luck, my friend!fanaticactus wrote:So this is probably the last post I'll have to make on this thread.

Re: Can this be saved?
I'll definitely do that, Steve. But meanwhile we'll all age several months, I guess And I'll be continuing to repot all my cacti that appear to be suffocating in my old mixes. In explaining it to all my friends, I tell them that cacti with roots in heavy, compacted soil are starved for oxygen like we would be if someone were sitting on our chest.
Catch a falling star--but don't try it with a cactus!
