How To Use Tips
Cactus and succulents are tough, undemanding plants, so don't love them to death. Too much water means certain death, so be careful! Cactus Mix provides excellent soil porosity and drainage. Water your plants thoroughly once every 2 weeks or so. Empty all excess water from your saucer. Many varieties of cactus and succulents are frost tender, while others need protection from blistering heat and wind. Learn about the needs of your plants! Ortho's World of Cactus & Succulents book is a good place to start. These plants don't need to be fed as often as other plants and benefit from organic, or organic-based fertilizers like blood meal, fish emulsion, or Dr. Q's Desert Plant & Cactus Food.
