How to fertilize Gymnocalycium mihanovichii var. friedrichii f. rubra 'Hibotan'
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.

How do I repot this one so it’s not crooked to one side? Should I move to a bigger pot? Any ideas would be great!

What can I do for him?😭 Noooo, Bob got ill😭 Just when I try to do anything right, I do everything wrong. These spots developed after I watered him over a month ago, and some water droplets were left on his skin (and probably in his fur) and I was stupid thinking they would evaporate and didn't think more of it. I went to water him again today, and saw from my previous pictures the spots have grown😭 He is almost 13 years old! I can't lose him now! First pic from when I last watered 25. feb, you can bearly see the stupid waterdroplets. Second pic from today, and last pic from 2 weeks ago. What can I do to help him? #GiantChinCactus #succulentsquad #helpneeded #cactusclique #plantaddict

What wrong?! #MoonCactus I think I may have burnt my cactus but I’m not sure… is there anything I can do to save her?! She’s with other succulents… and 2 of them were/are starting to shrivel…

What’s up with my plant?! I went to go check on it and it’s yellow and brown. Its color is also less vibrant. (The watering thing is not right, I keep forgetting to update it. I watered it like two days ago.)

Hello, up front usually not good at keeping plants alive. Hence why now I have this app. The app says this guy needs more sunlight. It's been outside getting noon to afternoon sun, facing west. Any recommendations?

Oh my oh my oh my oh my, Veronika breathe!😱😱 Bob is coming with flower buds!! And I thought I was making him sad because of his spots. (Turned out he just wanted water? I am really confused but after I watered him the ugly spots started to callus over.) I have never had flowers on him before. And he is 12 years old😱 (finally gave him a cold period this winter).🌸🌸🌸 So excited to see what they look like!🌵🌸 #cactusclique #flowerpower #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #succulentsquad #whatthesuccwednesday #cactus #freshleaffriday #bloomingsuccs #newgrowth

What’s wrong with my moon cactus?! I’ve had her for a few weeks and she means so much to me. I over water on accident a few days ago and I haven’t been involved with plants for long…. Can anyone help?
