How to Make Christmas Cacti Bloom for Christmas

How to Make Christmas Cacti Bloom for Christmas

1. Bud budding in autumn

When autumn comes and the weather starts to get cooler, we should start to promote budding. Generally, we should first move the Christmas cactus flowerpot to a place with more sunlight so that it can fully receive sunlight. This will allow its flower buds to differentiate better. In addition, we should also apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, which can also promote flowering and allow it to bloom more when it blooms.

2. Watering

It generally does not like too much stagnant water. If too much water is poured, it will easily cause its roots to rot, so you must not allow it to have stagnant water. You must wait until the soil in the pot is relatively dry before watering it. For example, in winter, it is generally sufficient to water it once a week. In addition, you cannot spray water directly on the leaves. If the soil in the pot is relatively dry, you cannot water it thoroughly at once. You need to water it gradually. If you water it too much at one time, the plant will easily lose water and will not bloom on time.

3. Fertilization

During the period from autumn to flowering, you should give it an appropriate amount of fertilizer and water, so that its flower buds can form better. One thing you must also pay attention to when applying fertilizer is not to let it come into contact with the grafted opening to prevent damage to its stem. So you must be careful when applying fertilizer. This will allow it to be absorbed better. This will allow it to bloom earlier.

4. Increase light and humidity

When it grows small flower buds, we should increase its humidity and light appropriately. We can put it in a place with better light, such as on a windowsill, so that it can receive sufficient light. It is best to change the direction of the pot appropriately so that every part of it can receive sunlight well, which can help it grow better, bloom more flowers sooner, and make the colors of the flowers more vivid.
