Hello all,
First time posting. I have inherited a large indoor cactus. I'm not sure what kind it is...it may be a Mexican Fence Post, based on pictures I have seen but I could use some input.
I have some questions I could use some help with. Please see photos for reference.
Questions:
1) The cactus is growing taller, but the new growth is not the same width as the previous growth. I'm wondering if this is a natural occurrence or indicative of a problem. Could it perhaps need repotting?
2) There is some damage to the cactus...a hole of sorts (see closeup). I'm curious what is causing this and how I can prevent further damage.
3) there are some generally dry or damaged spots throughout on the sides.
Current care: I have been watering it every couple of weeks enough so that drainage occurs out the bottom.
It gets lots of southern-facing sunlight all day. Not using any type of fertilizer.
Thanks very much in advance for any advice and support!!
Harry
