  I have an anxious attachment to plants and over water them, so instead of neglecting it, I over care for it, next time I will buy a cactus and ghost it so it won’t die

      I think I drowned it, but above a guy said that the secret of cactus is to forget about them haha, do you have any trick?

        Not really and mine hat standing Water this Year too. Im just happy that it and the palms are happy to have either too much or too litle water.

        Everything else i do Hydroponics as there is no overwatering :)

    Exactly! Same thing happened to a girl I used to know. She had two cactuses, put one on a window behind a curtain and forgot about it. The other, in full view, she kills it with her love. She finds the other thriving when she is packing up for a move.
