How to grow cactus

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: When growing cactus, you need to use soil with strong drainage. Do not use heavy clay soil, which will affect its normal growth.

2. Watering: Cactus does not require too much water to grow. The soil should be kept slightly moist at all times. No water should accumulate in the potting soil. Wait until the soil is dry before watering it appropriately.

3. Light: Give the cactus sufficient light so that it can grow stronger. In the hot summer, it needs appropriate shade and cannot be exposed to direct strong light.

2. Breeding Methods

Cutting propagation: First, prepare the disinfected soil, cut off the strong side branches, and dry them. When the wound is almost healed, insert them into the soil, then water them thoroughly and place them in a ventilated place indoors. Do not expose them to light. Water them again after half a month and expose them to appropriate light.

3. Common pests and diseases

Cactus is prone to diseases and pests in a high temperature and unventilated environment. Once discovered, it must be dealt with in a timely manner. It can be sprayed with carbendazim or thiophanate-methyl for prevention and control. In addition, the spraying should be done outdoors.
