Holiday Cactus Rot?

Dacocoa Paradis
10 years ago

Okay, so I've had problems with my T.G. and Easter cactus' rotting for about a year. I finally got my T.G. back after replacing all of it's soil. But now my easter cactus, which was previously doing awesome, just dropped a whole stem. The stem began to look pale as if it were in the sun too long, then I looked at it today, and I found it lying on it's side. The segment at the soil line had rotted and could no longer support it's branch. What could this be. The soil is new, just repotted in M.G. houseplant soil back in April. It's never soaking or wet for long. Since first getting it, no care changes have been made, so Im not sure what could cause this. As far as the rotten stem goes, as the whole stem that was above the soil is still in semi good health aside from it's bleak color, I'm going to root them. Any ideas would be appreciated.
