# “Ming Thing” is the name of this one. Looking in on its progress…

_Posted by Dave\_opuntiaface on 2023-06-21_

“Ming Thing” is the name of this one. Looking in on its progress (black sand pic is day one several months ago), I had to take pics and look back and forth a bunch of times like an eye exam. My friend saw it one day and thought I was growing a sprig of broccoli:)

Note: Still figuring out light needs on Ming, but he is healthy. Reddish tint in direct sun, back to green in partial sun, but creeping along despite me.
