# One big CHOLLA nugget… she did excellent for like a month and a half…

_Lagt ut av mj🪷cultivates den 2023-07-04_

One big CHOLLA nugget… she did excellent for like a month and a half when I potted her and last week she was tipped over, distraught, rotted at the base… we are currently callusing over again to try this again… I really don’t know what went wrong cause I thought I put her in a pot wayyyy too big but in less than a month in a 6 inch diameter and 7 inch tall pot the roots were deep to the bottom and all over the place… it was an epically sad loss of roots… she better get it together.

BUTTTT…. I did take 3 of the newly sprouted babies from her head just to show her who’s boss… actually she is def the boss. She wounds me every time I have to do anything with her…

They are my little baby security deposits. 💰

She’ll be just fine!!!! She’s too much of a 🤬 to give up on maiming me this quickly!

I have had a 1-inch piece of cholla in a pot for six months. The growth has been exponential…for a nub my friend had in a ziploc in his truck for two weeks. Note that I snagged it with my finger so many times I finally had to put it out of reach. Ow.
