How to care for Christmas cactus when it has flower buds

one. Water control during flowering period:

To control the water content. It is necessary to water it reasonably, because it has a very high demand for water during the flowering period. Too much water will easily cause it to drop its flowers, and in severe cases it will rot from the roots and cause its death. If you water it too little, its petals will wilt, and the flower buds will not be able to continue to grow. Moreover, the humidity of the potting soil must be controlled to keep it slightly moist. You can pinch it with your hands. If the soil does not fall apart when you pinch it, it means the humidity is moderate. We can take clean water at room temperature and spray it with water to moisten it at noon every day.

two. Temperature control during the bud stage:

Maintain a suitable temperature. During its flowering period, the surrounding temperature should be maintained at around 20°C. If the temperature is low, for example, below 10°C, it will not bloom for a long time. At the same time, if the temperature is too high, the blooming time of each flower bud will be shortened. So in the cold winter, you can put it in a warm room to help it bloom.

3. Sunlight control during the bud formation period:

Increase the light. Although this plant prefers a semi-shaded environment, it will find it difficult to bloom if it lacks sunlight. It is best to place it in a place where there is diffuse light, which can also extend its viewing period.

Four. Note:

1. Don't move it around randomly. It is best to find an environment that is more suitable for it to continue growing, and keep it there without moving it, especially during its flowering period. If you move the position of the potted plant casually or shake it too much, its buds will easily fall off.

2. If the soil in its pot is too dry. You should not water it too much at one time. You can use the method of slow infiltration watering. If you water it too much at one time, the flower buds and stems of the plant will fall off.
