I’ve got a super long Rat Tail/Peanut cactus (me and the plant store owner still don’t know which). And it’s beginning to fall over. What should I do? Cut it off and replant the top? Add a stick?

Could always add a small tomato trellis.

That’s a good idea!

Or maybe a heavier pot so it doesn’t keep falling over. I think it will eventually try to tail and be top heavy even with the tomato trellis

I would also highly suggest rotating your plant often, it’s been growing towards the light, rotate every once in a while so all sides get even light.(unless it’s a plant where you want all the leaves facing one direction)

Thank you! I do. I would describe the plant as more floppy so even when I turn it, it’s so heavy, it won’t change direction
0件のいいねI find myself rotating my plants to make sure all of the plant gets light. It looks like its reaching for the window:0 lol

Haha it does look like that. But I did flip it that way. Its very floppy and that is not its permanent spot. It’s so heavy at this point even when I turn it, it’s not changing direction.
いいね 1件I think it’s more peanut cactus than rat tail. Both cactus trail The peanut will have some standing straight up and some that hang.
