My cactus is growing sideways and has new growth at the bottom
What’s going on? Is this normal? Can I do anything to get it growing upright again? This cactus is planted outside in full sun. I water occasionally but we’ve had lots of rain this season in SoCal.

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