Cereus Forbesii 'Ming Thing' Cactus: ID and Care

Identification

Your cactus is Cereus forbesii monstrose 'Ming Thing'. Confirm at gardenlife.com.

Care

  • Light: Maximum indoor sun. Outdoors above 50°F—acclimate slowly: shade → partial sun → full sun over weeks.
  • Pot: Current size fine for years. Shallow roots—larger pot causes overwatering.
  • Repotting: Only Apr 1–Jul 30 when roots active. Sandy cactus mix.
  • Water: Every 2 weeks now (dry 5–7 days). Weekly in summer. Every 3–5 days above 95°F.
