2. Hydration Fixation
Watering cacti plants has been a stressful idea for many plant owners. We know they need water because they’re plants, but at the same time we’ve been told not to give them too much water because they’re from the desert! The truth is that cacti need regular waterings, they just have a special ability to survive drought.
If you want your cacti to grow, then water is vitally important. In a sunny location, that gives them plenty of heat during the day, you can give them water every week. The only rule is: Make sure the soil is dry between waterings. This will stop the roots and lower edges of the plant from becoming waterlogged or rotting.
During winter months you can cut back on the water, as cacti become dormant during this time with less sun and cooler night temperatures.
