Care tips:
Location: Place cacti close to the window; they need a maximum amount of sunlight. Temperature: Anything goes, as long as they are protected from frost. Watering: During the growth period (spring to autumn), water cacti abundantly, until water runs out of the pot. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave water standing in the pot or saucer, and wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. Cacti can (and will) start to rot when you overwater. April - October: For a cactus plant in a pot with a diameter of <5 cm, water every 3 to 8 days, depending on temperature and sun exposure. For pots with a diameter of >30 cm, water every 10 to 20 days. November - March: Water less than in summer. For a cactus plant in a pot with a diameter of <5 cm, give a small cup of water every 1 to 2 weeks, depending on temperature. For pots with a diameter of >30 cm, give a litre of water every 2 to 4 weeks. Most cacti donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need fertilizer. During the growth period, however, you can add liquid fertilizer every two to four weeks when watering.
