Euphorbia Meloformis Etiolated Growth

Hi All. Help with this one. A collection of both Obesa and Meloformis. They all get shaded and direct sun all day. They all get watered when dry. They all get fertilized occasionally with 25% of recommended strength. So what is happening with the Meloformis. Too much water?
Thanks
Mike M

Try to suppress growth for this species when the light is insufficient (winter time) by keeping it fully dry. Or use less % shading for these plants?

Hey 7george
They get either shaded or full sun all day. I'm watering them along with all the other plants. I did read somewhere to water this species sparingly. i don't normally follow watering norms since my climate here in Indio is so different than most.

They look unhappy living in a shade. Give them direct sun and changes will happen very soon. Euphorbias are very hardy according to insolation.
