My Cactus

[Parasuco]

I bought it like, a gazillion years ago... Its tallish... with long blackspikes... Just one trunk, not branhes...

It hasnt done anything for as long as I can remember. It just sits there. I repotted it recently because i figured maybe the two inch pot wasnt big enough (lol), and its still just sitting there...

Wut do I do....orwut is wrong with it?
Thanks...

What kind of sunlight is your cactus getting? Do you move it often? How often do you water? What is it potted in?

When I repotted mine, I got 16 new arms growing in a matter of 2 weeks! Now I am concerned that it will be top heavy.

its been sitting on my dining room table for ever. Light pours in on it all day, but i dont thin kdirect sunlight ever hits it...

i water it whevner i feel like it... about once a week,once every two weeks... its in a four inch pot, its kinda cool in my dining room......

Its not one that grows arms... In fact, I dont know how it grows...

Because it has never grown!! hahaha

sorry

It sounds like the problem is insufficient light. Could you move it to a spot where it gets direct sun for several hours?

Also, what have you been using for fertilizer? And how much? How frequently? Thanks.

Nothing, it just sits there.
That is probably the only spot that gets light shone on,thathas a table for itto siton. I could put it oustside, but it will get rained on...

Be careful not to burn it by putting it out and forgetting it: cacti grown "soft" indoors must be hardened off slowly or it will sunburn.
