Hey fellow meat suit wearers,
I'm in the process of putting together a grow guide for cactus. I've got a good start on the basic outlined, but I'm curious what I'm missing, or forgetting.

So far these are the bullet points

Soil
Mineral vs organic
Moisture retention
Drainage
Mulch
Biologics
Companion plants
Checking moisture

Pots
Plastic vs terracotta vs glazed terracotta

Light
Requirements
Adjusting to sun
Grow lights

Nutes
Salts
Forms of nitrogen
Calcium / magnesium
Compost tea
Micro bites
Worms

Cutting/harvesting/pruning

Rooting

Energetics

Grafting


I won't be directly answering questions in this thread yet, but I will share the guide once I've got a first draft done
Excited to geek out with y'all!
 
Common disease, pests, and remedies I feel is worthy of an include in a grow guide. I could see undesired common growth signs ( etoiliation / rot / etc ) be discussed during during your already covered sections. Like etoiliation covered in lighting / watering. Rot in soil comp / watering.

How to induce dormancy without undesired growth characteristics also is a big part that folks find not straight forward but not very complex.
