I believe my moon cactus is healthy but I know near nothing about plants. How's it looking?

It looks good but your pot is a little too big. Make sure you don’t overwater or it will rot easily. A big pot holds a lot of water your little guy can’t absorb. Water sparingly if you keep it in that size pot.

Would re-potting it be harmful? I have a smaller pot now I could move it to!

Bump for Claire’s comment! 🤙🏼

Looks great but i would go with a smaller pot for sure cause rot root and also other issues

### jsscx commented on 2024-08-11

I had no idea plants could rot...🤦🏼‍♀️

Yes the roots can root easy with to big off a pot of to much water and she is beautiful!
