FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- Supplement monthly using a houseplant fertilizer.
- Potassium-based feeds may be used during the blooming process in late summer to promote longer-lasting flowers.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- Place your fishbone cactus in a bright spot with indirect light.
- If it happens to get some direct sunlight, no worries it can handle it, but keep it limited.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- Always allow the top half of the soil to dry out in between irrigations, reducing this further in winter to replicate their dormancy period.
- Although Fishbone Cacti grow on moist nooks of jungle trees, it's important not to promote too soggy conditions as root or basal rot are always a threat.
