At the beginning of autumn, the Christmas Cactus will recover from its dormancy and start to accelerate its growth. At this time, it needs to apply nitrogen every 7-10 days to promote the growth of its branches and leaves. However, after a period of time, when the temperature drops to about 15 ℃, it will enter the pregnancy stage. At this time, we need to stop applying nitrogen fertilizer and change the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote its flower bud differentiation, so that it can produce more flowers.
After autumn, because its growth speed is gradually accelerated, it needs to slightly increase the frequency of watering to ensure sufficient water and help it grow. But we must pay attention to that we can't pour too much water into the flower soil, or it will cause damage to the root system of the plant.
In autumn, it needs to be given a relatively soft scattering light, so that it cannot be directly exposed to strong light. In addition, every few days, you should turn its flowerpot. In this way, it can receive light more evenly and more comprehensively, avoiding the problem that it blooms more on one side and blooms less on the other.
Because it grows faster in this period of time, it is also easy to grow more disorderly. At this time, it needs to be pruned, cut off its more messy branches, in order to maintain the beauty of the plant type.
