What is the reason for the non-flowering of the cactus and how to solve it
The cactus is especially suitable for maintenance in the bedroom because it can release oxygen at night, which helps with sleep. At the same time, the flowers of the cactus are also very beautiful. So what is the situation if the cactus we maintain does not bloom? Let's understand this below.
Reasons and solutions for non-flowering of cactus: not reaching the flowering age
When propagating cacti, we usually use methods such as cutting or grafting. Cacti propagated in this way need to grow for two to three years before they can bloom. If we have just started maintaining the cactus, it will not bloom. At this time, we just need to take good care of it and wait for it to bloom.
Improper lighting
There is an important condition for the cactus to bloom, which is lighting. When maintaining the cactus, we need to ensure sufficient lighting so that the cactus can grow better. However, if we want the cactus to bloom, we need to ensure a certain period of darkness so that the flower buds of the cactus can differentiate. During the differentiation period of the cactus flower buds, we need to maintain an environment without light for more than 12 hours, so that the cactus can bloom.
Unsuitable temperature
The cactus is suitable for growing in a warm environment, and it generally grows best at about 20 degrees Celsius. A warm environment helps the differentiation of the cactus flower buds. If the temperature changes significantly during the maintenance period, the differentiation of the cactus flower buds will be affected. Therefore, if we want the cactus to bloom, we must ensure that the temperature difference between day and night does not exceed 10 degrees.
The above sharing is the full content of the reasons and solutions for the non-flowering of the cactus, hoping to help you. At the same time, I also hope that everyone will come to see more green plant and flower experience and common sense!
