Root Trouble Shoot

Post by Zerax »

Hi guys, quick question. I just recently purchased an E. pachanoi but it still has this part sticking out :-k . I'm trying to repot the whole thing (approx 2 ft.) Should I cut it? Let it dry for a certain amount of time? Its been a day since its been drying.
Thank you! :mrgreen:

I don't think these are roots. This is where a branch was broken off.
Just let it dry very well for 10-14 days and follow normal cactus rooting procedure id you are in the noethern hemisphere
