Succulents and Cacti Basic Care: Easy

• Watering: Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering. Water deeply and infrequently, ensuring excess water drains away. Reduce watering to a minimum during the winter.
• Light: Most succulents and cacti thrive in bright, indirect sunlight. Some species can handle direct sunlight, but it's best to acclimate them gradually to prevent sunburn.
• Soil/Drainage: Use a well-draining potting mix designed specifically for succulents and cacti. The ideal blend should contain porous materials like perlite, pumice, or coarse sand to promote aeration and drainage.
• Temperature: Prefer warmer temperatures but can tolerate a range from about 40°F (4°C) at night to 95°F (35°C) during the day. Protect them from frost to prevent damage.
• Humidity: These plants prefer low-humidity environments. If indoor humidity is high, ensure good air circulation around the plants to help keep moisture levels down.
• Fertilizing: Feed sparingly, only during the growing season (spring and summer), using a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer diluted to about half the recommended strength.
