How to water Christmas cactus in winterChristmas cactus itself is a plant that is very afraid of stagnant water, and its root system is not well developed, so it is often used as a grafting scion and grafted onto plants such as the three-edged arrow, the king's whip, and the cactus. These plants used as rootstocks have more developed root systems than Christmas cactus, and their fleshy stems have a stronger ability to store water, which can provide a more scientific water supply for Christmas cactus. The room temperature is 22 degrees in winter. How to water Christmas cactus? It is better to say that it is watering the rootstock rather than watering the Christmas cactus. Most of the plants grafted with Christmas cactus as rootstocks are drought-tolerant, and their fleshy stems have the ability to store water. It is best to maintain the pot soil in a relatively dry state. The room temperature in winter reaches 22 degrees Celsius, which is a suitable temperature for the growth of Christmas cactus, and it is also the flowering period of the New Year flower Christmas cactus. In fact, maintenance is very simple. When watering plants during the flowering period, a certain balance needs to be achieved. Too much water will accelerate the shedding of Christmas cactus buds, while too little water will cause the buds to lose water and fall off easily. Because the indoor ventilation and light are in poor condition in winter, it takes a long time for the soil to dry out every time you water the Christmas cactus. When watering, you should base it on the dryness of the shallow surface soil that can be seen with the naked eye. When the shallow surface soil is dry, extend the watering period for about a week. Wait until the soil is completely dry before watering, and water thoroughly. After each watering, on the third day, you can use a spray to add moisture to the fleshy stems of the rootstock. Spray once or twice every morning and evening. Do not wet the branches and leaves of the Christmas cactus or the flower buds when spraying. |
