How to deal with cactus balls

When the small balls grow on the cactus, they can be taken down when they are big enough. They can be directly broken down by hand or taken down by tools. It's a pity to throw away the ball directly. It can be dried in a cool and ventilated place. After drying, it can be propagated. This is the cactus's small ball cutting.

When cutting, we need to choose suitable soil to make it rooting well. Small flowerpots with a diameter of 4-5cm can be used as culture pots, which are not too deep and shallow. Place the configured soil in the flowerpot, spray the soil with water, and place the dried ball on the surface of the soil.

During the period of rooting, we should do a good job in daily management. When the pot soil is dry, we need to water it, but not too much water, because the pot is too shallow, so it is better not to water. In general, the ball will take root in about half a month, and the root is relatively strong.
