Hi Guys
Lyn I am so so sorry 😪 this was heartbreaking to watch and I can hear how upset you are from your voice. Lucy arrived at the right time to cheer you up and I sincerely hope that this is the last cactus you will lose this year. Sending you heaps of love my friend xxxx
Awwwww thanks so much Paula, it was so wonderful to see sweet Lucy as she really cheered me up, her sweet little face instantly makes me feel better, thanks so much Sis for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you and Tom and SWEETIPIE Mabel lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Swindon for a fantastic new week XXXX
😞😞 sad watching this!! Your decision to share it with us was a good one. We all go through joy and bad times together 💔❤🩹
Awwwww thanks so much Luna
Oh geez I'm so sorry! It is so frustrating to lose plants! Especially when you cant figure out why!
It really is so frustrating to lose plants, thanks so much Robin for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Oh my, Lyn, I'm so sorry! It's a horror to see such a beautiful plant in that condition. Indeed, the only consolation is that you'll have more room for other plants. Lucy is really lovely cat! 🐈 ❤❤❤XXXX
Awwww thanks so much Vera :-D Lucy really cheers me up and her sweet little face is so heart warming, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
I'm so sorry you lost yours.
I want you to make a video of you showing all the cactus you've grown from seed
Awwww thanks so much, it really is gutting when we lose plants we love, I will definitely do an update on all the cacti I have grown from seed in the near future, thanks so much Josh for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a super Sunday XXXX
So sorry Lyn.. so sad that you lost this old, majestic plant, and heartbreaking to hear this is one that you are especially attached to! In any case, thanks very much for sharing it with us, because as sad as it is, it is also educational to see a video of how different types of decay in a plant can look. For those of us with less experience and less plants, it's a way to learn. The bottom part looks very strange indeed: Tim said it reminded him of the type of mould on an orange, but to me it looks like the type of mould on blue cheese. Looks like something that's been a while in the making.. Hopefully someone will see this video and will be able to identify what it is exactly and how it could have happened. I hope Lucy can comfort you!
Awwwww thanks so much Nathalie
Oh dear Lynn, sorry for your loss! Sometimes things don't go the way we want them . I'm glad you always see the bright side! I hope this is the last one to lose. Thanks for sharing and happy growing 😊

Awwww thanks so much Kui, and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
That is such a shame, Lyn. So sorry you lost this one 😢 I lost one of my Astrophytum asterias the other day. I can’t blame the winter for that because it was indoors. Was fine one day and then the next I noticed it was black around the base with white mould growing on it. Hopefully none of us lose any more. Thank you for sharing with us, Lyn. Have a lovely evening from Edith & myself to you and Hans ❤️🌵☀️🌺🌸🌼🏜
Oh no, so sorry to hear you lost one of your Astro asterias Daz, thats so gutting, and fingers crossed thats the last of any plant losses this year, its a gorgeous warm sunny day today and I was going to start watering all the Rebutia and Chamacereus, but a chilly night forecast for tonight and tomorrow but after that it looks like the night temps are onwards and up YAY :-D Happy 1st May, and thanks so much Daz for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you and beautiful Edith lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to England and Singapore for a fantastic new week XXXX
So heartbreaking. Sorry 🥲
thanks so much Nikki for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Shame about the mold and winter trouble.
It really has been so awful over the winter, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
I feel you Lynn! I lost about 10 cacti this winter, and it’s been a real bummer! I’m so sorry for your loss!
Oh no, so sorry to hear you have lost around 10 cacti this winter, it really has been a tough one for our plants, thanks so much Michaela for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
This has happened to me twice i reckon it from sometimes your cactus can be a bit woody inside, and if you left a wooden sweeping brush out in the wet for example it would have mould, so could the gel from the cactus make the woody part constantly wet causing the mould. 😮😮😮🎉🎉❤❤
So sorry to hear you have lost cactus this way too, and its very possible the inside of the cactus that got damaged got wet with the humidity and caused the mold, thanks so much for your wonderful comments and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Friday XXXX
Don't know whats going on this year. In the last 8 yr ive only lost 2 plants BUT this year I've gotten a sudden issue of rot from this winter including dry rot.
So sorry to hear you have had rot from the winter too, it really has been the strangest winter ever, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Don't worry about needing to have only happy videos Lyn, it is not realistic. It is hard to loose plants and frustrating when you don't even know how it happened. The Mamillaria may have been too old to fight off a pathogen. So sorry.
Awwww thanks so much for your wonderful words and thanks so much for your wonderful support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Oh my godd i understand your feeling! But its okay anyway. This is a part of the hobbyyy , sunny days will show up soin🌵🌵🌼
So very true Youssef
I had one that got rotten and shriveled up, but it shot out a new bud from the root ball. It's been alive about 3 years now since living out doors in Texas.
WOW thats amazing James, its so good that your cactus recovered, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Texas for a fantastic Friday XXXX
Sorry Lynn for such a horrific discovery. That sinister spread up the core is a nurturer’s worst nightmare for such an heirloom specimen.
Awwww thanks so much Bart, it really is a worst nightmare, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
My opuntia monachanta suffered root rot, but I still didn't give up on it. It's pretty droopy, but I'm trying to regrow its roots
So sorry to hear about your Opuntia monachanta Jeter, but the good news is Opuntia are great at re rooting again from their pads, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
I just lost the same plant This week a very old plant probably just as big as that One little bit small or very upsetting And yes I have lost a lot of plans this Winter alsoI don't have quite as many as you I only have maybe 400 not a billion like you lol
Oh No I am so sorry to hear that you lost your Mammillaria spinosissima and a lot of others over the winter too Robert, its so gutting to lose plants we love, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
😢 This makes me so sad. I’m sorry Lyn. I believe something munched on your cactus and it started the infection.
Awwww thanks so much Ana, I am gutted to lose this big old Mammillaria as it was one of my favourites, I also think a mouse may have taken a bite out of it and infection got into it, because it looked like it came through the winter ok and Mammillarias are normally very cold hardy, thanks so much Ana for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comments and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and CAFFEINE and PLANT POWER to Las Vegas for a fantastic new week XXXX
From the amount of fungus and who knows what else, darlin’ that’s been taking over your beauty for a long time and it finally hit max overload. I am so incredibly sorry Lynn. Hugs from Alaska 🤗🤗🤗♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Awwww thanks so much Joule
Your poor mamillaria , I was on the edge of my seat hoping that it was salvageable. I really felt for you when it was all the way through . I can imagine the distress of loosing a plant that’s been loved and raised by you for so many years. Gutted for you, I hope winter 23/24 will be less disastrous for your collection. Bah I hate it when plants die
Awwwww thanks so very much Holly
Oh Lyn I'm so sorry! My heart just sank as I watched this video. It is so heartbreaking to lose any of our plants but especially the ones that have been with us for so long. It's nice that you had Hans there to do that for you though and Lucy to try to help cheer you up. I really hope this is the last of the losses this year🤞 let's hope for better days ahead 💚
Awwww thanks so much Heather, it really was so gutting to lose this big old cactus, and I am so happy that Hans and Lucy was there to calm me down, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Hey Lynn! I’m really sorry to hear this!!! I too have lost so many plants from a Coldsnap I had in early November I wasn’t expecting. The temperatures went down to 10°F, so I started moving all of my plants in which obviously took a few hours, but I had planned on keeping them in my enclosed patio like I did the year before, and just lighting fires in the wood-burning stove when It would get very cold, but I didn’t have fire with me at the time and wasn’t prepared, so after moving them all inside, I immediately started seeing cold damage within a week or 2, and now that it is spring more and more continue to die! I probably have lost half of my collection! So I know how you feel, that’s very sad! Even worse, my plants suffered from being inside without all the light they are used to! They actually did very well the previous year, when I would go out there and light a fire, I just didn’t feel like having to do that this year, so all of the plants that didn’t make it are stretched and look weird, because they were starved for light. I had them all by the windows, but I guess it still wasn’t enough light! So I suspect I will have more losses as time goes by! I am hoping though, that when I move them outside for good, this spring, that they will grow compact again?? do you know if they will? I had moved them outside but moved them back in because we were having nighttime temperatures in the low 40s again this week.! and I am wondering when I should start watering?! I was thinking about putting them outside today because we are having some rain and they haven’t had water all winter! But we are still having nighttime temperatures in the low 40s do you think it’s OK to do the first watering? Our daytime temperatures are in the 70s? I looked for your videos to see if you did your spring watering yet. I just hate to lose more plants! And I am so nervous with everything that’s already happened! And again I’m sorry to see that you’ve lost so many as well !!Sending you love 💕❤️- Anna
Hi Anna
Oh no, so upsetting. I feel for you, it's so heartbreaking. Sending you lots of hugs and love.
It really is so gutting when we lose plants, lets hope we never get another winter as bad as this last one, thanks so much Magda for your wonderful Friendship and amazing comments and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from across the Emerald Isle XXXX
Hi Lyn! So sorry to see you have lost another of your precious plants. I hope you don’t find any more affected plants!
Take care!🌸🌺
I don’t think I’m related to your Lucy the cat! 😂😂😂
hahaha with Lucy the cat :-D I actually thought of you when I mentioned Lucy as I know you have the same name title on your You Tube haha, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Oh Lyn, I'm so sorry for the enormous and very scary loss of your beautiful Mammillaria! 😢 As Hans kept cutting I kept hoping the cactus would be a strong solid green color. But it wasn't and like you both said it's what it is and it's reality. I still can't get over how many cacti you loss with so much sentimental value the last six months. 💔 Sending you and Hans peace, love and strength to get through this terrible situation. I hope your weekend gets better from your friend in Georgia!
Also, on a good note, I love the pants Hans was wearing. Very cool!
I have to second that, those pants are so cool!
Awwwwww thanks so much Jeff
You still have that 40 years of growing experience, so when you have to replace a plant, it really isn't the same as having to start over. I was able to find a large spinosissima today for less than $10.00. It's in full bud. Do you still have a nice spinosissima today?
Thats brilliant you have bought a large spinossisima for $10 thats a BARGAIN, and fantastic its in bud too, the good news is I still have another spinossima and its growing really well, thanks so much Terry for your wonderful comment and support and for watching and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a super Sunday XXXX
Hi. Do you feel mamillarias are more prone to root rot?
I lost so many mams
Comment edited: i hate mammilarias!
Hi there :-D yes Mammillarias can be a bit more rot prone than other types of cacti, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
😭😭 I’m so sorry, just seen this. Absolutely heartbreaking 💔 Sending you the biggest hug I can 🥰
Awwww thanks so much Heather
Ah no way lyn 😢 the coldness we've been getting has killed alot of are plants so sorry to hear this lyn,I'd get some mouse traps just incase cause they will come back xxxxx
Awwww thanks so much John, I was so gutted to see this big old Mammillaria get mold so fast, I think its possible a wee Mouse or Rat jumped into the polytunnel and took a bite out, the high humidity we get caused the hole to get infected and mold spread through the cactus super fast, it seemed to come through the Winter fine and Mammillarias are super cold hardy too, a lot of my cacti have dropped like flies this year, but thankfully the warmer temps are here and a nice warmish day today, thanks so much our wonderful Friend and Neighbour for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and Hans and I are sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from down the road haha, for a terrific Tuesday today XXXX
Sorry for your loss. Can hear how passionate you are about them. Such a shame. Just hope there's no more losses .
thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
The very fuzzy spiny cacti like that that are saturated with needles are very water sensitive. I Water Mine only once a year in the middle of summer. I will only water it again if it does not look plump and smooth. Cacti in general go dormant in the winter and should not be watered at all.
Yes these cacti are very water sensitive, I always keep all my cacti dry and no water at all from September until April, thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful plant powered Thursday XXXX
So heartbreaking to lose a plant you have had for so long! I am just going into my 2nd year as a cactus owner and I cannot imagine how it feels to lose a plant as old as that! I sincerely hope you don't lose any more. But thank you for showing us the bad that can happen. It helps to inform us all what to look out for.
Awwww thanks so much Tracy
I’m sorry! I hate when I lose my cactus!!! Keep your head up. Cincinnati Ohio
It really is so gutting when we lose plants we love, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Cincinnati for a fantastic Friday XXXX
What is the cause of this? Mine had babies and they babies have all hollowed out? They've become Hollow. I have no idea. This is heartbreaking.
So sorry to hear that the babies have hollowed out on your cactus Mary, I am not sure why this happens but it can be due the babies staying too wet around them when watering, if a small amount of water stays n between the babies around the Mother plant it can cause them to rot and die off, I notice this seems to happen the most on Mammillaria and mine often get the babies die off or go hollow too even though I am very careful with the watering, as long as the Mother plant is ok they usually will re grow them again, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a sunny Sunday XXXX
Wow that's so sad must have been a very old mammillaria don't know what has happened there but your not on your own I've lost a few cacti lately. And still am. Can't make it out! I have some pots with 2 cacti in one will be fine but the other has died strange. Well hopefully our luck will change soon.
So sorry to hear you have lost a few cacti too Smokey, its so gutting when we lose plants we love, lets hope we don't lose any more, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Very sad news 😢. Thanks for sharing what's happened , can hear how sad you are. Hope you don't lose any more plants 🤞🤞🤞
Awwww thanks so much, I really was so gutted to lose this beautiful big old Mammillaria, hopefully thats the last of the dead plants and all the other cacti are looking safe and many coming into bud, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a terrific Thursday XXXX
Ooh 😢so sorry, it’s like a horror film, how strange, I hope you out what caused it. ❤️🩹
It really was like a cactus horror film, thanks so much Suzanne or your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
So very sorry for the loss of your beautiful and special plant. I think Lucy could tell how sad you were and came to comfort you. Hugs!😢
Awwww thanks so much Deborah
I’m sorry, Lyn. I have a optunia cylindrical cristiata. I had it outside and we had a day of bad flooding In Florida and it got really wet. I noticed a small piece of rotting on the bottom side that turned black and mushy. I cut the black part out and I put cinnamon on it. I hope it heals. I wondered if I should put a band aid on it. I put it in a terra contta pot and bottom water it only. I won’t buy optunia variegated anymore, because I have so much trouble with scales and they die on me. I use alcohol and it takes it off, but then they die.
Oh no I hope your Opuntia cylindrical cristata will recover for you Susan, its always so gutting when we lose plants or they come down with pests, Scale is such a nuisance especially on Opuntia as Opuntias seem to be very prone to getting scales, thanks so much Susan for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Florida for a fantastic new week XXXX
That should happen to my cacti, not yours because I hate my cacti. Even though I have treated them nicely for almost two years, they never show me their flowers.
They hate me. 😢
So sorry that your cacti don't flower for you, but I they will bloom for you and surprise you when you least expect them too, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a terrific Tuesday XXXX
Ahh Lyn, what a shame!! I’m sorry this has happened to you! Thank you for sharing the bad & mainly good with us xxxxx I hope that’s the last one that goes to cactus heaven xxxx
thanks so much Vixi for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
So sad you lost your plant. A friend of mine had some bugs nest and breed in her cactus. I believe it was either spiders or scorpions. And when all the babies were ready to hatch, they all came out through a similar hole that you have on yours. Her cactus also perished in that incident. So it could be a similar situation with your mammillaria.
Thats such a shame your friend had this happen to her cactus too, its so gutting when we lose plants this way, thanks so much Erwin for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful weekend XXXX
I had the same cactus which has recently died. Is there a way to replant this type of cactus so it regrows?
So sorry to hear you lost your Cactus too Lewis, the only way it can be saved by replanting is if there is still some of the cactus left that has no rot or mold, they can be saved by cuttings if the middle of the core of the cactus is clear, but when the rot has spread throughout its impossible to save it, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Friday today XXXX

Hi, I water all the desert cacti in the polytunnel from April as I live in Ireland and the cold and damp winters will rot any of my cacti if I water them in winter when they are all having their resting period, all the cacti soon plump back up and come into bloom once I water them from April, thanks so much for watching and for your wonderful comment and have a fantastic plant powered new week XXXX

I'm so sorry Lyn, that one was one of my favorites. Every time you'd give us viewers a tour, I'd see it and I'd say "Oh i wont one like that". I think I'm going to go out and check on my Mammies. I have a pot that has remained wet for several days. So sorry Lyn. Thank God for Hans to be there for you.
Awwww thanks so much Marie, it really was so gutting to see this big old favourite of mine gone, its been such a bad few months for cactus losses, I am so happy that Hans was there to calm me down , he is so chilled out and calming as I freak out and panic LOL! thanks so much Marie for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
I was surprised how far up the rot went. It was very suspenseful but had a sad ending. I m sorry. I have that cactus and I do love the ring of flowers it produces. Never seen that green mold in a cactus before. Strange. 😘
It really was so awful to see how far up the mold had gone and spread so fast, the green mold really is a strange one, thanks so much Mari for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
Possibility to graft one of the sides.

Lyn, I'm so so sorry you've lost this beautiful Mammillaria, I feel your pain 😢
Awwww thanks so much Chris
My guess would be that the orange rot is soil borne. That the blue/white mould is a secondary pathogen that is colonizing the dead tissue and that the hole simply resulted from the weight of the top of the plant pulling the rest of the plant down. With no internal cellular structure left, it simply tore a hole in the side of the plant.
I would be looking into the use of grittier growing media as well as beneficial soil microbes and having greater air circulation around the plants.
Thanks so much for your wonderful tips and info, I was so gutted to lose this big old beauty, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a terrific Tuesday XXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon I have had large plants fall and snap in high winds and it's always heartbreaking. I am lucky to live somewhere with a climate that permits me to have them outdoors all year round so I'm always impressed by the dedication of those of you in colder climates in keeping these plants alive and how much extra time it must take to grow large plants compared to warmer climates.
If I can make another suggestion, if you don't already have one, an air filter that is capable of filtering fungal spores might be an idea to bring down the overall spore count in the air may be worth looking into.
@@musclecactus5183 Thanks so much for sharing about the air filter, I will definitely look into this, you are so lucky to be able to grow your cacti outdoors all year, I wish Ireland wasn't so damp and rainy haha, so sorry to hear you have had some of your large plants fall and snap in high winds, XXXX

I do not know if you apply fungicides on a regular basis, but it has to be done. Unfortunately, fungus are omnipresent and are there to consume our precious plants at any time. Mark your calendar and schedule regular fungicide applications together with an insecticide every 3 months. Rotate chemicals periodically to avoid resistance. There are many products out there in the market, I cannot recommend one, you can go to any store that specializes in products for orchids and there you can find anything you will need, for sure. It is very difficult to have a healthy collection without the help of chemicals nowadays. I learned that from a hard lesson 3 years ago when a fungal infection decimated my collection by 70%.
"Fungi are omnipresent"
Thanks so much Ricardo for your recommendation about the fungicide on a regular basis, I use Neem oil a lot but it may not be enough to control fungus, so sorry to hear you lost 70% of your collection from a fungal infection, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic new week XXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thanks! I forgot to mention that I live in Vero Beach, Florida....it is painful that we have to deal with many hurricanes and tornados every year....believe me, it is an ordeal to keep these plants in outstanding condition.
