Hi everyone! I’m a new to several baby succulents. I don’t really know how to care for them and how often I should water them. I usually let the soil get supper dry before I water them. That’s about all I know.

I recently discovered this affected area on my cactus. It appears to have a yellow hue towards the center and a brown, shriveled edge on one of its ribs. I use a grow light and typically water according to Planta’s recommended schedule, but the soil was EXTREMELY dry. Would anyone happen to know if the cause of this issue is underwatering? If so, will sufficient watering allow that area to plump up and regain its overall color and shape? Any information is appreciated! #helpsavecucumber 🌵

hi y’all! 👋🏼 can anyone help me identify this lil buddy? i have it in planta as a roadkill cactus (consolea rubescens) because it’s so 2-dimensional. however, it’s also pretty spiky & almost every photo i’ve seen of a roadkill cactus doesn’t have these spikes on the paddles. could it be some other type of opuntia? tia!

Trying to encourage Pearl to get fuller instead of longer. I had all the strands coiled up (see photo) for about 3 months. Uncoiled some strands today to check length and I don’t think any of them had started growing roots into the soil. Any advice?

I’m not quite sure if this plant is doing well or not, I was told it was a echeveria, but no echeveria i’ve found looks like this. The plant is dropping but it’s still growing.

How should I propagate this offshoot? Cut it off from the base? Or leave it?

I just bought this new plant and it accidentally fell out. I put it back in the dirt and moved the soil around a bit. Anything i can do to make sure it survives?

I had a friend give me a bunch of cuttings of these spineless prickly pear cacti. Got them all in dirt today!

Is anyone familiar with this Echeveria hybrid Raquel? I bought it several weeks ago because it was one I had never heard of. I think those are flower stalks coming out of the sides. But I don’t recall echeverias having leaves on the flower stalks. Very little info online. And I don’t think it’s etoliated because it’s under a very bright grow light. In fact it actually got a little burned from it. It has grown a lot in very shot time.

I have an old lady cactus with an artificial flower hot glued on top… I wanted to remove it a while ago, because it’s inhibiting the growth, but all I could find online was using a heat fun to melt the glue? I’m afraid of singing the fuzz on my cactus. So, I’ve been ignoring the problem but I really need to do something! What should I do?? 😩

So I’ve had this split rock for about three months. He’s been doing fine. I’ve been following Planta’s watering schedule. I looked at him today and his one side looked rotten and deflated with a white mold material. It was very sudden and I wonder if he has any chance or if this is somehow normal? I just looked at his roots and they look dry but I’m not sure how they are supposed to look since it’s pretty draught-resistant. I removed the (leaf?) which maybe I shouldn’t have done…

I was watching a thing and saw this plant in the winner's circle. So, by default, my plant is also a red ribbon winner.

I need help identifying this plant. The scanner says it's one called a "pig ear" but I'm just not sure that's right. I tried using google and it gave me so many different answers that I just don't know.

Hi! I just picked this up on clearance at my local store and it’s beautiful. It’s showing up as a Ficus Microcarpa on the identifier but it does not have a twisted trunk its growing on a stake. Anyone have one of these? Just thought I would share!
