My bunny ears cactus is droopy! I moved it to a spot with more sun and have been following the water guide that the app provided, however, it’s just not growing anymore 😞. Does anyone have any tips on what I should do?

it’s possible that the app is telling you to water too frequently! bunny ears usually like the soil to be almost completely dry since they are used to more dry environments. always check the soil to make sure the moisture is gone before watering!!

This happened to one of mine months ago. I think it was due to too much watering. BUT! I took the droopy one and repotted it and it is doing well now. It’s not lost yet!

@mora This started after I had re-potted it, is it possible that had something to do with it?

@AlertKatsura completely! it could still be adjusting, it’s possible the roots haven’t taken to that soil yet

The water must be completely dry before watering. If the app tells you to water it before the soil is dry just hit the snooze button. Try rotating whicc side of the cactus is facing the sun. Other than that, I’m not sure what the problem is.
