Zu Posted October 28, 2003 Can someone tell me what this nasty white growth is and how I can get rid of it? It hasn't inhibited growth at all and doesn't seem to be getting better or worse over time. But it sure is ugly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr b.caapi Posted October 28, 2003 i had that on one of my trich too! its from too much water during its dormant season. i left mine out last winter and excactly the same thing occurred. i dragged it in this winter and all is fine,the damage didnt effect its health at all.

Zu Posted October 28, 2003 That's a relief. Like I said it hasn't affected growth (it's grown 2-3 feet since it started). I thought it might have something to do with being in a pot too small for it. I probably was a bit over zealous with watering at first. I love your sig by the way mr caapi Smogs, do you mean scar tissue from being cut? If so then definately not. It's kind of slimy.

Captain_Marshmallow Posted October 29, 2003 I got what looks similar on my San pedro when a possom took three big bites out of it. I was worried that it wouldn't recover but the exposed flesh scabbed up with white growth that looks like the growth on your cactus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
