Boobie Cactus

Boobie Cactus Care Guide

Light: Place in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct sunlight.

Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly, especially during winter.

Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix.

Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Protect from temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Humidity: Prefers low humidity environments.

Fertilizer: Feed with a diluted, balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).

Pruning: Minimal pruning required; remove dead or damaged parts as needed.

Pests: Generally pest-free but watch for spider mites and mealybugs. Treat with insecticidal soap if necessary.

Notes: Handle with care; the spines can be sharp. Water sparingly to prevent root rot, as it is adapted to survive in dry conditions.
