Christmas cactus loves this kind of oil; add a little apple peel and 3-5 drops will keep it blooming nonstop

Summer is here, and many flower lovers like to grow some potted flowers at home, but because of the high temperatures, some say their potted flowers are not growing well. Christmas cactus in particular is especially prone to yellowing leaves and bud drop once summer arrives. Today, the editor will teach you a trick: drip a few drops of this oil onto your Christmas cactus, add a little apple peel, and it will bloom nonstop, with no need to fertilize for a whole year.

Take an appropriate amount of rapeseed oil and put it in a clean bottle, then chop the apple peel into small pieces and put it inside, cover with the lid and place it in the sun to ferment. Once the apple peel has dissolved into the rapeseed oil, it is ready to use. We can dig a small hole at the edge of the pot, drip 3-5 drops in, then cover it with soil; as you water, the nutrients inside will slowly be released for the Christmas cactus to absorb.

You can also dilute it with water at a ratio of 1:10 and water with it, but remember, do not pour it on the flowers and leaves of the Christmas cactus; the oiliness can easily affect its ornamental value. Just water it directly at the roots. When caring for Christmas cactus in summer, be sure to pay attention: when the sunlight is relatively strong at noon, be sure to provide shade, otherwise it is prone to bud drop. In addition, we can spray water on the leaf surface to keep moisture sufficient and lower the temperature.
