My prickly pear cactus is bent over / droopy ? Why?
I usually water it every 2 weeks or so because it’s outside and gets hot. It’s in a growing phase because it’s summer now and it’s outside. I live in Canada so I put the cactus outside on my balcony in summer. Anyways we had a very hot last few days so sometimes I check the soil and add very very little water when it’s really hot. Today after our very hot spell it’s 18 to 20 C now and pretty cold for summer. My cactus leaves are bent / droopy. So wonder what I should do? Did it not get enough sun? too much water? Too little water? Too cold? I’m just going to wait it out for now. I did touch soil and it seemed dry but not crazy dry. Any advice going forward is appreciated. Thank you.
