I've just been letting it do its own thing. It's been growing slowly, but I think it's putting most of its energy into healing itself. Occasionally I spray it with water, but that's just how I show it love. :wink:
It gets full sunlight, and has been watered by the rain. We've had a few times where it rains for 3-4 days in a row, but it usually dries up for two weeks or so afterwards, and the cacti seem to handle it fine.
