FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- During the growing season, a balanced fertilizer, which has been diluted to 1/4 strength, can be added to the water for each watering.
- A balanced fertilizer is one that has roughly equal proportions of Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Potassium.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- Most cacti like bright light, but not all can tolerate intense, direct sunlight, especially in conjunction with high temperatures.
- A plant that is grown in optimal light conditions will "look normal" (unstressed), and is more likely to flower than one grown in sub-optimal lighting conditions.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- While growing, cacti should be watered at least once a week.
- During each watering, give the soil a good soaking, so that water runs out of the 'drainage holes' of the pots.
