Hello friend!! Hope u are well :bigjoint:

I hadn't named any in there yet;

The red one I am not 100% sure but I believe to be Graptosedum -

The cactus is called Ming Thing Cactus/Cereus Forbesii Monstrose -

Ashamed she is dyed blue. But next seasons white is still nice. Keep her out of direct light and don't over water. those moths are my nemesis. LOL.
im not concerned about that ....i noticed blue wax or something on it so its fake color. My ONLY goal here is to keep her alive. ive never even seen one knowing what it is, so its going to be fun killing her. (not intentional of course)
:bigjoint:

EDIT: what should i repot her into ?

She is good in the pot for years. Unless you have the touch and she does something miraculous. Just use a good commercial species specific blend next summer. Just keep her warm and wetted once a week. No nutes or feed till you get some info. Low tolerance. I feed at 150 - 175PPM.

Forgot to mention 5.5 - 6.5 ph. Mid to low suggested. And do not like chlorine.

so is tap outta the question? my tap is usually 2-600ppm. its kinda rough. probably 350 on a "clean day" . Her roots are pretty much the medium, it appears...
Live spagnum moss has a higher ph then recommended , wonder why they didnt use regular peat moss? Either way , thanks for the help sir!

Tap is too high. Sorry. I use distilled when feeding. Mt tap is around 120 after charcoal filter. It will suffice for few waterings. But only last resort. Fine for root washing and transplant though.

And the moss is greener and holds more water. Few bricks around here. Higher mineral content also. Careful. Causes rot if too wet. You bought the box.

Danni the orchid girl would be my best tip for you. I just wing it here.

Update on the xmas cactus cutting. 19 days and it has no roots. I change the water about every 5 days. Could be the colder temps where it sits on the counter this time of year. May also be because they are in flowering vs in the summer when they are in veg. I'll wait it out and eventually get some roots. The big one is still flowering with a few new flowers still forming. Groot has two flowers developing.
Happy Growing!

If I may. Propagated a few of these years ago. Tke out of water, Let air dry in warm sunlit(not in direct sun) for 4-5 days. Lay on a pot of perlite and coco coire with a decent, but minimal amount of potting soil. Just push the medium up around the root end and a bit of the stem. Do not bury. Place in sunlight and keep above 75F during the day. Just keep soil moist with spray daily. 1- 2 weeks and you should have roots. Water is just drowning in cold and short light period as I've tried. Hope to get you on your way. Keep cutting and multiplying.

I made a joke to a friend a while back about sending a messenger pigeon with gifts. The other morning a pigeon was chilling right outside my door. He knows where the greener grass is at. His wing is injured... A week later we are best buds.

I named him Salvador and protected him all week. We share breakfast. If you fuck with my Pigeon I will end u.
