Hi! I have been having an issue with my golden lace cactus as of late. The first two pictures are from when I first got it. It was super green and stood straight up. I put the cactus on my windowsill in my office, so it could get lots of natural light and warmth. Sometimes it would droop to one side, but usually when I gave it a little bit of water or turned it, it would straighten itself out. Lately, I’ve noticed that it looks almost deflated, like it has shrunk. It’s stature is twisty instead of straight, and I’ve botched there’s little bumps/knobs that seem to be growing on it. It has also lost a lot of its green color. The last two pictures is my cactus now with all those things. I’m still somewhat new to plants, so I’m not sure what could be wrong. Please help!

    I’d try to repot it, in my opinion this nursery pot is not big enough. When they’re in this little soil they need more frequent waterings! If you’re worried about overwatering in the future, Terra cotta is great for them bc it can help wick moisture.
