About 10 days ago I watered my cactus. I think I overdid it cuz it immediately changed colors and looks pretty bad. Is this coincidence or directly related. I’ve also started to see tiny mites around it, but maybe they’ve always been there and I just noticed them.
We’re in Brooklyn, NY and have it placed next to our AC unit. Aside from a little bit of mold it’s looked healthy for the year we’ve had it. We usually treat the mold with neem oil after cleaning it a bit.
