HELP SICK/SAD YELLOWING TRICHOCEREUS CACTUS

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

 

I have some yellowing Trichocereus cactus that I am a little worried about.
any ideas on what might me coursing them to turn yellow. I am leaning towards that they might need to be re-potted as they have been in the same pots for 2 years and maybe low in nitrogen?

Well, when it comes to general plant care, weeds/grass in yer pots with the plants yer trying to grow will usually outcompete the plant for nutrients, sucking yer mix dry of nutes and making yer plants hungry, so there's one I noticed browsing yer pics...

 

But I'm no cactus expert.....yet.

 

What sort of fertiliser regime do you have going/history?

 

that might help some wiser others here chime in...

Hi guys

 

Thanks for the input I will weed them re-pot them and add as some compost as well as hit em up with some seasol.

 

I know they look a little rough with weeds and alike but there are at a friends house out bush in Victoria.

I only get to see them twice a year and he is no gardener. I will make the effort to get over there soon and do some maintenance.

 

oh and the log cabin is like 80 or 100 years old its pretty sweet

 

thanks again for all your input.
