Hey guys, have been reading for years but haven't posted enough to be able to post this anywhere else on the forum. Any posts I did have, I irrationally deleted one night when thinking too hard about the NSA. Anyway....

3 of my 6 Bridgesii cacti have this light brown patching that is spreading fast. I can't identify it anywhere on the net, so I turn to you for help. Please let me know if you know the source of the problem and how I may be able to fix it. Thank you!

Good quality Syrian rue (Peganum harmala) for an incredible price!

If someone would be nice enough to post this to the cactus cultivation thread, I would be very appreciative... Think of the poor cacti Sad

Don't use neem, that will only make it worse, whatever it is - cacti don't like oil-based sprays. Sulfur-based funigicide and a warm, dry place would be my first move.
