Hello,
My cowboy cactus is turning very yellow on top. My apartment is not very light in Berlin - what do you think could be the cause of this?

It could also just be a nitrogen deficiency. Has the plant been in the pot for a long time? By the way, your succulent looks like a Euphorbia to me, not a cactus.

iron sclerosis maybe?
There are more cacti in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

Re: Cowboy cactus sick and yellow
Thanks everyone for their tips!
Yes I agree- it is a Euphorbia so I may have better luck in posting on a Succulent help forum.
I might have overwatered it in the past but in the last months I've only been watering it once a month to try to see if its conditions improve.
@hegar - I've had this in this pot for 1 year - how often do I need to repot these plants?

Re: Cowboy cactus sick and yellow
Check the roots, are these OK, still there. Repoting 1nce in 3 years is enough.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.
