is she okay?


repotted about two months ago and has been rapidly growing. recently noticed old growth has almost a wax coating, kinda crackling skin thing happening. and some discoloration on some newer growth. is this scales or another pest or issue? she’s also bending over a lot which i think is just the weight of the new growth but i want to make sure. thanks in advance! she’s my child and i love her.

i water every week and half to two weeks. she’s gets full indirect sun from two skylights. by all indications she’s happy, i am just making sure bc i hadn’t noticed this texture build up before. and the discoloration is new. thanks!!

    A common problem with cacti and succulents is etiolation. This is when a succulent stretches or becomes leggy. Reply with “!etiolation” for advice.
