maybe higher light and fertilizer. also do not water often

I’d say full sun and give it water when it’s thirsty. I do water when my cacti soil is dry as often as they want and they grow like crazy. I know I water more often than is said but it’s working well.

The yellowing is over OR underwatering. Add a little more sand to the soil. Also, get it out of the plastic pot and try clay so it can drain and breathe.

Full sun and clay pot. TY!
