All of the spiney bits happened In the last week. It's a good thing, right? It's my first fishbone and they're so weird.

I posted about a month back about my tephrocactus growing possibly a flower, a new segment, or an alien 👽 It turns out she was growing a new segment! It’s getting really big, and is popping out cute little spikes 🤩 This is my first (and only) cactus and I’ve got a big soft spot for her. I brought her back with me on a plane in my purse 🤣 (First photo is around a month ago and second photo is from today)

Is this a pup or a flower?? 🥹

I just moved from NorCal to Michigan. I couldn't leave my beloved cactuses behind and am trying to keep them alive in a much colder climate. This one seemed to be doing well in my sunroom that keep as warm as I can. It gets to about 40° over night and then ranges between 65-75° during the day. I have noticed the tips have turned white. Tried reaching onoien and everything says it's a webby insect infestation, but it's not. There is not. There is no we like substance. It is literally the plant that is white. Is this new growth? What can I do to resolve it? I did figure out it needed more water based on the little white rootlike growths at the tips.

Got this Echeveria at Walmart a couple weeks ago and he’s pretty leggy. What can I do to help other than more sunlight? I have noticed new leaves growing steadily so I’m hopeful.

What would y’all recommend for this guy as far as root growth? Bought him online and he’s a super healthy/beautiful succulent but it’s like they broke all the roots off. Should I remove a bunch of the bottom leaves and try to make a “stem” to propagate or set it on some soil and try to prop roots that way? The problem is that the root system isn’t level with the bottom of the leaves so it’s hard to get the soil mounded up to reach the roots. Thank you!!

Hey guys I need help with my cactus. It’s from Mexico and I got it from a friend. I recently asked for help identifying it and I didn’t get much help. I also need help with these brown spots that are popping up on the tips. For some reason the cactus is leaning over the pot instead of sticking straight up. What should I do??

Hello everyone! I just wanted to share my Ghost Plant propagations because everyone needs this kind of cuteness in their life. These are about 2 months old!

Hey friends! I have a question about my little Ladyfinger cactus: I got some new soil/fertilizer for it and I didn’t know if it was correct. It had good reviews. “Back to the Roots Organic succulents and cacti mix”.

Hey friends! Thank you for all of the advice on my snowflake aloe! I decided to pull “Iris” out and repot her because her roots were starting to come out of the dirt (yikes) so I gave her a bigger home, it’s also water day! so it was perfect and so far she seems happy with it but only time will tell!

Hi! I am a NEW plant mama, and trying to figure out how to care for my new plant babies. I think I started by overwatering them, so I pumped the brakes. The also had some of them on top of a block on an old school radiator (I keep my house at 65 degrees when I’m home, 60 when I’m away) but I moved a few of them because I felt like they could be getting too warm/dried out, and ALL my plants get ample light during the day (open the curtains, lots of windows, etc) . I’m wondering what else I can do to rejuvenate them. I’ll see if I can attach a few pictures of the ones I have concerns about. Does anyone have any advice? Also how regularly should I be watering these?

This is quite an embarrassing post, but I am no pro when it comes to succulents. I received this plant and pot for free at an event at uni. Unfortunately, it’s been through quite a bit. I never created a consistent watering schedule, and it endured cold snaps while at the dorms without air conditioning. (I live in a region with extremely cold winters, so we would open the windows when the it was too hot indoors.) also, I was never told the species to care for it properly. I’m wondering if it’s already dead. Over the past year, it has completely lost all its “leaves.” I’ve attached an old photo for reference (Im sorry for the poor angle).

Whats going on, and can I fix it?

Does anyone know what this is?

Hello! I’m new to keeping plants. My Mexican Snowball (that’s what I think it is at least) has a few sprouts!! Do I do something about this or just let it keep growing like this? I think this plant is outgrowing its planter so I can repot it. Any recommendations on what size pot to put it in? Thanks for any advice!
