prickly pear
Hello! I need some help with my dwarf and regular size prickly pear cactuses. The dwarf has white stuff all over it and then the big one keeps leaning the way you see in the pic plus the pads are curving inward. I need some help if anyone has advice

The white is likely fungus or a pest. Spray it with some insecticidal soap and it should go away in time. Also make sure the soil isn’t wet and causing the growth. For the leaning, it’s stretching for light. There’s nothing your can do about that except for finding a location that has better lighting. If it is structurally weak, you’ll need to find support for the pot to help it stand up, or you can propagate it. Hope that helps!
