Here it is after about a week of drying:



What do you think? It is a little bit black on the side, I will probably just cut it away a bit there.

thank you Steve! This is why I joined this site to get help from experts. I will wait I promise, I'm just scared that I will mess up something once again. I will wait until it dries then ill put it into the soil again. I had to cut away about 1/2 of the cactus due to rot. :cry: It's a small Saguaro ...

I sliced off about another 1/4 off of it and all the brown/black is gone. I will now be replanting it in a few days. How long should I wait until it's ready??? h

ill take a picture of it tonight to show u guys.

It is also sitting by the heater vent. I have noticed recently and in the summer that at the base of the cactus the s...

It's starting to be summer now. The temperature is climbing this week to 80-90F, perfect for my cactus.

My soil is a mix of cacti mix and perlite. Drainage is not perfect but then again I do not pour in massive amounts of water. I much prefer to dampen the soil rather than water it.

Hey there, I need to know what is a good temperature range for my cactus. Right now here its in the 55-75F range. Is that good? Also how much water should I give it? It's young I usually just moisten the soil slightly with a few ounces of water and I pour a bit on the cactus too. Some people on the ...

Hey guys, I've got this cactus here: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/jb1986_345/0413091502-00.jpg It's a Saguaro that I got in April. I replanted it and have been watering it conservatively every month. About a couple ounces of water to dampen the soil. Seeing how it is summer now here in the...
