    Most cactuses thrive on neglect and sunlight. I have had a cactus since December and I’ve watered it maybe twice and it’s healthy. The soil matters to you need a very well draining soil.

      i got mine for christmas and have watered it twice since! admittedly, my friend potted it in a pot with no drainage so i haven’t watered TOO thoroughly on the occasions that I have and the soil could deffo be chunkier and better drainage. maybe a repot??

      I would highly recommend a repot with good chunky soil then. Cacti need drainage to thrive. Hope it helps!

    I’d recommend fast draining cacti soil, even sand, cacti like to be very dry, and a pot with drainage holes☺️

    It looks like it’s inside. The only times I’ve had cacti inside I’ve also had grow lights on them. Idk if that could be the problem though.
