Grow happy, healthy cacti
New to cacti? You’re in the right place. Here are the basics to keep your spiky friends thriving.
☀️ Light
Most cacti love bright, direct light. A sunny windowsill or a spot outdoors in the warmer months is perfect. Introduce full sun gradually to avoid scorching.
💧 Water
Less is more. Soak thoroughly, then let the soil dry out completely before watering again. In winter, water sparingly — many cacti rest.
🪴 Soil
Use a free-draining cactus & succulent mix. Add perlite or coarse sand for extra drainage. Never let roots sit in water.
🌡️ Temperature
Warm and dry is ideal. Protect from frost — bring tender species indoors over winter.
