1、 Cutting time

The cutting time of cactus is very random, which can be used in spring, summer and autumn. If the indoor temperature is appropriate, cutting can also be carried out in winter. However, cutting in rainy season should be avoided, and the humid environment is unfavorable to its survival

2、 Basin soil preparation

Cactus does not have high requirements for soil, so river sand with good drainage can be used. The soil viscosity is too high, which is unfavorable to its rooting and respiration. If you want to grow faster and better, you can use nutrient soil and add appropriate perlite. Disinfect the soil before use to avoid adverse effects on rooting

3、 Cutting

Choose 10 cm tall, plump and plump old leaves. The leaves are too small and tender to take root, which will affect the survival rate of cutting. Don't plant the leaves immediately after cutting. It needs to be dried for about 7 days before cutting until the incision shrinks, otherwise it is easy to rot. Insert the leaves 3 cm into the soil. The sandy soil does not need to be pressed too tightly, and do not water immediately

4、 Slow seedling maintenance

The cactus in the slow seedling stage needs to be placed in a well ventilated place and given certain light at the same time. When new leaves grow on the top, you can try to lift the plant. If you can't lift it, it means it has taken root. The amount of water should be controlled immediately after rooting
