You’re right. After all, they never rotate the tower of Pisa either. Very nice group!

Not to rain on the Naughtocactus parade here, because it’s a great plant grown well, but the sooner you sever your Tower at its base, the better for all plants concerned. It will sever its ties to the bottom colony on its own, eventually, and it’s better to start a new plant at your choosing rather than its choosing.

Cactus- What would that entail, simply hacking off the main growth as low as possible??? I’ve never even thought about it.

Yes, in a word. More later.

Cut it, in one slice being best with a clean knife, so that the base is angled so the stump doesn’t collect water. Dust stump with sulfur powder (flowers of sulfur) to prevent rot and keep it dry. The Tower of Power’s cut end is ideally dusted with Rootone or the like and set aside for a week, then pot it up in very lean mix (almost no organic material) to root it up. The cutting should be out back into full sun, preferably on sun-warmed concrete, and misted daily (with a cutting this size, I’d use a hose instead of a spray bottle). It should be rooting in a month or so, but don’t look for the next few months.
