# Heya, so I’m very new to cacti and don’t reallyyy know much about…

Heya, so I’m very new to cacti and don’t reallyyy know much about them. I repotted this one over a week ago as it got too big for its original one. Then not long after I saw this green shoot coming out the soil. I’m just curious as to what it is and why it sprang up. If anyone could tell me and also the specific cactus type that would be great thanks.

To me that looks like it might be a weed. 🤔 What soil did you use?

#### Carrie svarte den 2023-12-09

If it has been outside a weed seed may have blown into the pot, or possibly it came from the new soil.

Ahh that’s probably it, I used some random mixed soil from the garden that probably just had some small seed in it. The small growth had gone now. Thanks tho for the insight
