Discolored and something else

Queen of the Night cactus is not a strong dark green like it used to be. It keeps growing babies which is making the top look sickly. What can I do?

Hi! I think your cactus is growing babies because of the top being sick. The top of the cactus is its growth point, and when that is damaged, the cactus doesn't give up! It grows from other places to stay alive. You can't save the tip of it, but your cactus still wants to grow :)

Do you think it would help if I cut the sick part off and let it heal over? Or should I leave it alone?
