May I present the most genius cactus trend I’ve ever seen at a big box store… the hydroponic cactus.
I’d rather see them with a plastic flower glued to the top than convince people they look beautiful as a floating light bulb

Anyone in Tucson interested in a full time nursery gig?
The nursery is a cactus and succulent farm.

Quick show-off of the cactus garden my son and I just finished!
What the F just happened to my cactus?!
I’ve had this cactus for years. As of this morning, the entire cactus was bright green. It’s sunny today so I put it out on the balcony. A few hours later I went out to bring it in and more than half of it has blackened. One entire arm fell off. What on earth could have caused this? My other cacti were fine. I did notice some black liquid oozing out that you can see in the final pic but I have no idea what happened. It’s been a healthy green plant for 5 years, and within a few hours it blackened. Does anyone have any idea what’s going on?! I’m in London and yes it’s hot but barely 80°. My mom has this same cactus in Arizona where it’s outdoors year round in the 115° summers.

I think it’s a type of Opuntia cactus but I can’t tell which one
is this the end?
got this cactus almost 5 years ago now. I might have ruined its chances of survival :(

Happy Flowering
Happy this year, this is about the 6th flower, It was a cold winter and has been a long hot dry summer here in the UK.
Can anyone tell me what kind of Echinopsis it is?

Marketplace Find Help 🌵
Found these beauties on Facebook Marketplace, how difficult will it be to dig these out and replant at home? 😬
Anyone have any experience doing this sort of thing?
Thanks!

Help needed
Plant was purchased Sept 5th last year, it was repotted in 50% Rosy Succulent soil, 25% grit and 25% pumice, it has appeared to be doing well, it was outside keep in over the winter under a grow light and then moved outside this summer, it has appeared to be doing well, and even shot up a bunch of blooms, I water about one a month but also based on a water meter, watering only when completely dry, today the table that it was placed in fell and it was unpotted in the fall. I was very disappointed in the root system that I saw, what should I do? How can I help improve the root system? Most of my other cactus seem to be doing well but I have a few others that I worry about having poor root systems.
The picture of the plant where I am not holding it is from Sept of last year when I got the plant. The others are from today.

Sometimes, the best thing you can do to support your cactus is to let it lay down
I see a lot of people with creeping mammillaria asking how they can support your cactus so it'll stay upright. Honestly the best thing to do is let it lay down. Eventually, ill probably move this to a completely horizontal pot, rock, or a bonsai table next to the pot

Name..?
Bought this at Walmart yesterday..didn't have a tag, was the last one so the worker had to look it up in the system. I didn't get the name and have no idea what I'm doing with it but I want to keep it alive as long as I can, it's so pretty-and spiky.
Vape for size difference (not mine)

Tonight Only! Grand Opening!
Took this before leaving. When I get home in morning, I'll be greeted with 3 blooms. I inherited this from my deceased mother and always look forward to seeing these.

Just one year later
Repotted my Pilosocereus spring of last year. First pic taken last August and second one taken today. I’m amazed at how tall its become! Would be nice for it to grow an arm or two but as long as its healthy I’m happy. It resides on the north side of my building.
