Usage Instructions
For optimal results, follow these guidelines for feeding your cacti and succulents:
- Dilution Ratio: Mix 7 drops of Schultz Cactus Plus 2-7-7 Liquid Plant Food per quart of water.
- Application Frequency: Apply the diluted solution every time you water your plants. This ensures consistent nutrient delivery through the roots.
- Watering Technique: Water your plants thoroughly with the diluted solution until it drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
- Target Plants: This plant food is specifically formulated for all cacti, jade, aloe, and other succulent varieties.
Plant Care and Maintenance
Beyond feeding, proper care is essential for the health of your cacti and succulents:
- Watering: Overwatering can cause damage and disease. Always allow the soil to dry completely between waterings.
- Light: Provide indoor plants with full bright light. Outdoor plants generally prefer light shading or afternoon relief from direct, intense full sun to prevent scorching.
- Temperature & Humidity: Requirements and tolerances differ among varieties. Consult a local garden center or plant library for specific needs of your particular plants.
- Soils and Pots: Use a porous potting mix, such as a specialized cactus and succulent soil, to ensure excellent drainage. Pots should always have drainage holes. Repot annually or as needed to refresh soil and accommodate growth.
