Baby cube

Baby cube

The only one of my seeds still alive. I put it outside and it did fine, recently relocated outside as snails were eating other cacti. Now one side is light and the other looks caved in.

Still firm.

Im assuming just sunburn?

Thoughts?

I really want this one to be okay. It's been a major wish list plant for me

Winter Dormancy.

I have over 100 cacti of various types and have heard some can have winter dormancy to where they dont really need light and won't etoilate. I was hoping to compose a list of these and hopefully save some grow tent space this winter.

Any info is appreciated thank you so much!!

Cacti pic for tax. Edit to add: all will be moving inside for winter. Zone 6b doesn't allow them to stay outside

Seedlings

I just recently got to move my seedlings outside a d where they were originally to acclimate a snail thought they were a tasty snack. Are they doomed since some are at the growth point?

Rust fungus

Ive sprayed with copper fungicide. Is the orange supposed to go away if successfully treated. Or just the new growth being green? Tia

Look at this little freak

Gymno I found at Walmart.

Id been eyeing it for a couple weeks and everytime I saw it this side got even bigger than the other. Yellowing came with sun stress after I brought home.

What to do?

Got this plant in the mail about 4 days ago. Has been on heat mat with no dirt or water since. Was wet inside box and some heads were busted when arrived. Removed them. But remaining ones have brown spots and are now getting squishier than when first arrived. Took the one in the middle photo off today and has red color underneath. Contacted seller and they only told me to remove the gas i already did.

Anything specific I should be doing to help keep this alive? Does it sound doomed?

Help

Got this degraft in the mail. I thought it was gonna have roots.

Set it in dirt which I guess was slightly damp and now the top middle is squishy.

Anyway to save it??

What happened?

The only thing I know of that happened that it doesn't like is there was a lot of rain recently.

Any guesses what happened?

Yellow on firm cactus

What's going on with my cactus? I have probably 3 our of 100 thats doing this. Started when I started acclimating them outside for summer. It doesn't look like sunburn. I thought maybe from some top watering? But they usually stay outside through rain. I can't reach this spot past the spines to touch it. It's also mostly on 1 side of the plant, this one has been facing away from sun.

Is it harmful? Is there a way to get rid of it?

Side note. I had a couple different ones with mealy bugs while inside over winter. I havent seen any since moving outside. Is it safe to preventative spray all at night to ensure there aren't any?

Thanks in advance!
