Cactus grow very slow because it is saving water for the later time. Cactus grow in the desert, and it merely rains in deserts. So, when it does rain, the cactus takes up as much as water as it can and saves it for the rest of the period of time until it rains again, which is why they grow slowly. They use small amounts of water for itself everyday, which makes it grow slower.
