There is no requirement for watering time in spring and autumn. Water is supplied in the morning and evening in summer and at noon in winter. Before watering, observe the pot soil, and if it is dry, water can be supplied. Before watering, slowly pour the water from the edge of the pot. There is no fixed amount of water, so it needs to be poured thoroughly at one time. Water is supplied every 7-10 days in winter and spring, liquid fertilizer is applied every 10-14 days from spring to summer, fertilization is stopped in summer, and fertilizer is applied every week after autumn.

The water application time of Christmas Cactus is different in each season. There are not too many requirements in spring and autumn, and the climate is relatively mild. In summer, the daily temperature is too high. It can be supplied in the morning and evening instead of at noon when the temperature is high. In winter, the temperature is low, so it is necessary to ensure water supply at noon. At this time, the temperature is slightly higher, causing less damage to the roots.
