That basal pup is going to be super sensitive to light, I would face it to the north away from the sun or just slowly accumulate the whole plant.

Winter was hard for me, my outdoor greenhouse is small so I brought a bunch inside and got hit with thrips inside.
I’ll be building a much bigger greenhouse in a few months.

It’s not dead, just ugly, it will grow out of it….cactus are extremely resilient.

seems to be growing out of it well.
1st year learned i need to block out all light for winter.
had to cut a skinny top off. that made it have 4 pups.
this year looked great but white parts. i fucked up and
put into direct sun. got toasty. this summer it has recovered.

and set in a window.

grew better above skinny part. so i grabbed a ceramic knife.

then cut skinny part off of thicker part.

will plant the thicker one. skinny 1 was going to toss.
then i had a thought. i am after it drys going to lay it
flat in a pot. see if pups come up from it. might work.
then in a bit over a month. i will uncover from darkness
my bigger one and see how it over wintered. and get into
the greenhouse.
