CACTUS CARE TIPS

Provide 4–6+ hours of direct sunlight, plant in fast-draining soil, and use pots with drainage holes. Water only when the soil is completely dry—generally every 1–2 weeks—and reduce watering significantly in winter. Avoid overwatering, as it causes root rot, and place them in temperatures between 60°F to 90°F.

Key Care Requirements:

  • Light: Cacti need bright, direct sunlight. A south or west-facing window is ideal.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly until water drains out of the pot, then wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. In winter, they need very little water.
  • Soil: Use a specialized, well-draining cactus/succulent potting mix. You can improve drainage by adding grit, perlite, or pumice.
  • Potting: Always use pots with drainage holes to prevent waterlogging. Terracotta pots are ideal because they allow soil to breathe and dry faster.
  • Temperature & Humidity: They prefer warm, dry conditions, making them ideal for standard home humidity. Keep them away from cold drafts.
  • Fertilizer: Use a low-nitrogen, high-potassium fertilizer during the growing season (spring/summer)

Common Mistakes to Avoid:

  • Overwatering: This is the most common cause of death.
  • Lack of Light: Causes "etiolation," where the cactus stretches and becomes thin.
  • Not Enough Drainage: Leads to root rot.
  •  If your cactus looks wrinkly, it may need water; if it looks yellow or mushy, it has been overwatered.
