Christmas Cactus help
My Christmas cactus has been looking withered recently. I took her out of the window to repot tonight and she fell out of the pot without her roots. I don’t water her super often but when I do I drown her. This method has worked for several years but I suppose it’s led to root rot🥲 is there any saving her from this barely root bearing nub?? I do intend to pinch off some cuttings but I’d like to save all of her if I can. She’s a few years old now. Don’t go by my Greg last watering I always forget to update !! She was watered a few days ago & is normally watered every 2 weeks ish. #TrueChristmasCactus #ChristmasCactus #help #advice #christmascactuslove

@DreamMachine the soil wasn’t wet! I put my finger in the pot before watering every time as I normally can’t remember when I did it last😅 The stem isn’t mushy at all!! It’s hardened on the bottom (tree like) almost feels like my jade plant. I know this “tree like” part is a normal thing developed by the plant to keep itself from flopping over but I’m insure if this hard bit will grow roots. Yes the whole plant detached from the roots🥲 I’ve since put her in a small terracotta pot with perlite & cactus soil. Unsure if this is a great move but I had to do something for the mean time
