Among cacti, there is a particularly good one with small, dense leaves, and a very large number of leaves. It is called the Thousand-Hand Guanyin cactus. Many gardening enthusiasts enjoy growing it. If the leaves at home turn green or purple, the main reason is a lack of water and too much sunlight, which is caused by exposure to strong sunlight. To care for it properly, we must ensure that it does not have any problems and grows rapidly.
When cultivating it at home, since it belongs to the cactus family, it is not picky about soil. We should use soil with good breathability as much as possible. The simplest soil mixing method is to use river sand or coal slag mixed with half garden soil. This mixed soil has good breathability, and there is no problem in planting it. When caring for it normally, watering does not need to be too frequent, but it should not be lacking in water. Generally, watering thoroughly when dry is the method during its growing season. If it is dormant, there is no need to water it.
Throughout the year, regardless of the season, it should be placed in a well-lit area to ensure good growth, with wide and thick leaves, and a sturdy appearance without drooping or breaking. However, it is essential to remember that while exposed to light, it should not lack water, otherwise the leaves may be sunburned, turn purple or green, or even develop brown spots from direct sunlight. Normally, it should be supplemented with fertilizer regularly. As it mainly grows leaves, a multi-element compound fertilizer can be used directly by beginners at home. If you want it to grow faster, choose a fertilizer with a high nitrogen content and no lack of other elements, applying it once or twice a month. As long as the concentration is not too high and it is watered regularly and in the right amount, it will absorb and grow rapidly.
This is the easiest plant to care for, with good growth, rapid development, and very beautiful leaves. It also has some dense small spines, so it should be kept out of reach of children to prevent them from touching it. Growing it at home as a green plant is very good. Following the method mentioned by Xiaoqi, you will definitely not have any problems caring for it, and it is also a plant suitable for lazy people to grow.
