In theory, cactus blossoms every year, but some cacti do not blossom until several years later.


The factor of cactus flowering is related to the method of culture.


If you want the cactus to blossom, you must first understand the growth habits of the cactus.


It is a sunny, warm environment with good drought tolerance, but you should pay attention to cold and waterlogging.


The cactus does not need to be watered too much.


So each watering needs to look at the specific circumstances to water.


If the rainy season, watering frequency can be less.


Cactus is very fond of light, because the most primitive growth environment of cactus is in the desert, and then introduced to other places.


As we all know, there must be plenty of light in the desert.


So when potted cactus is planted, it is best to put the cactus on the sunny balcony.


So that the cactus can be exposed to more light and promote the growth and flowering of the cactus.


Potted planting is not conducive to heat dissipation, when it is hot and hot at noon in summer, you can cover it with shade, but you must ensure sufficient sunshine.


The first condition for cactus to blossom is to have enough light.


Choose to cultivate cactus flowerpots are exquisite, it is best to use breathable flowerpots, such as pottery pots or purple sand pots.


If the air permeability is not good, it will affect the growth of flowerpots, which is not conducive to heat dissipation in summer.


Flowerpots also have the problem of drainage, because cacti prefer dry environment to waterlogging.


So choose flowerpots that are not easy to cause stagnant water problems to grow cactus.


Cacti do not like to be disturbed, unless the plant is very large, the original pot cannot bear, or the flowering condition is not ideal.


Or when the cactus is affected by diseases and insect pests, which weakens the growth potential, otherwise there is no need to change the pot.


So what should be done if you really need to change the basin?


1. Stop watering one week before changing the basin, so that the basin soil is completely dry.


Before changing the basin, wear thick gloves to avoid being stabbed by the cactus.


First, tap the basin and take out the plant.


2. Clean up the old soil.


3. Trim the root system slightly.


4. Fix the plant at a proper height, then pour it into the basin soil, and note that the cactus should be planted shallowly.


5. Compacting the basin soil slightly, do not be too tight, so as not to affect the drainage.
