Watering Christmas cactus with a little fertilizer in autumn makes it grow fast and plump, with especially many flower buds

Today let's talk about the care of the Christmas cactus. It is now autumn, and the Christmas cactus is slowly entering its growing state. At this time we need to step up its management and let it grow. This grafted Christmas cactus is starting to grow new leaves, and these own-root Christmas cacti have all started growing too,

Because in summer, the Christmas cactus is in a dormant or semi-dormant state. In summer we don't dare water it, don't dare fertilize it, don't dare put it in the sun. Now the temperature is slowly dropping, and it's the growing season for the Christmas cactus, so gradually increase the light and watering

This is a Christmas cactus I grow. Because it was damaged in summer and I had no time to care for it, the cactus that the Christmas cactus is grafted onto has gotten a bit thin. At this time you need to fertilize and water it, letting it slowly recover its growth, so the Christmas cactus is not affected. Of course, these potted Christmas cacti also need care.

At this time, once the potting soil is dry, just water it thoroughly directly, and don't let it lack water again.

Gradually increase the light, let it get morning and evening light, and then give it some multi-element fertilizer, because the current light is not yet suitable for it to bloom. This is exactly the time for growing leaves, and what you need to do now is make its leaves thick and sturdy. At this time you must not let it lack fertilizer, to make up for the lack of nutrients in summer. For fertilizing, give it some multi-element fertilizer, so the plant and leaves grow together,

I choose to use this liquid nutrient type, because its fertilizer strength is relatively mild. Let it slowly repair some of the roots damaged in summer, and let it absorb slowly. It is best not to use that kind of fertilizer with relatively strong strength. This liquid nutrient type has mild fertilizer strength; just add a little directly when watering, and even if you add too much it won't damage the roots, which is very good for the Christmas cactus's recovery.

After it recovers for a month, you can give it some granular compound fertilizer to speed up its growth and make the leaves thick and plump. Build the plant up well, so that when it comes to October and the bud-forming stage, you just pinch off the tender leaves, then let it directly produce flower buds and bloom,
