Your cactus looks pretty good, plump and healthy. The flower is probably a fake one that’s been glued on your cactus to I recommend that you remove it. Your cactus also needs good drainage in both soil and pot 🙏

When I put it in planta it had a flower in top

You can see the glue on the flower! It’ll fall off ir you can take it off. These will flower rarely. Looks good otherwise

Why do you think you’re doing something wrong? I think it looks healthy-nice green color and decently plump. The flower is fake, I’ve taken them off the two I have but be careful you don’t damage the cactus or needles.

Yes, that fake flower can really damage the cactus. The glue can poison your plant, and the needles can get damaged. Let it flower on it’s own.
