1. Potting soilChristmas cactus has very strict requirements on potting soil, which must be loose and fertile, with good drainage and a certain water retention capacity. 2. WaterBecause Christmas cactus is a cactus plant, it is not tolerant of water and humidity, but is also afraid of drought. During the cultivation process, water management should keep the potting soil moist, neither too dry nor too wet. 3. LightingChristmas cactus requires scattered light. It is afraid of direct sunlight and cannot tolerate excessive shade. If it is too dark, the branches will become thinner and grow weak. 4. FertilizationDuring the cultivation period of Christmas cactus, the management of fertilizer and water also needs carefulness. Generally speaking, it is sufficient to give it a thin nitrogen fertilizer once every ten days. It is important to follow the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently and preferring thin fertilizers to thick fertilizers. Otherwise, once concentrated fertilizers or raw fertilizers are applied, root rot and leaf shedding will occur. 5. TemperatureThe temperature requirement for Christmas cactus during maintenance is generally below 30 degrees and above 6 degrees. It can grow normally in such an environment. Frost damage will occur below 2 degrees, and high temperatures above 30 degrees will also cause poor performance, so attention should be paid to temperature control during maintenance. 6. NotesPay attention to the looseness and fertility of the soil, and the careful management of water and fertilizer. It has a strong phototropism. The angle of each pot rotation during maintenance should not be too large, especially after the flower buds appear. The angle of each pot rotation should be small. If the angle is too large, the buds will fall off. |
