Instructions d'entretien

Echinopsis calochlora thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It can tolerate low humidity levels and should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This plant is relatively easy to care for and can be grown both indoors and outdoors.

Sol

This cactus prefers well-draining soil, such as a sandy or cactus mix. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. A mix of sand, perlite, and a small amount of organic matter works well.

Engrais

Fertilize Echinopsis calochlora with a balanced cactus fertilizer, such as a 2-7-7 formula, during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, about once a month, to avoid over-fertilization.

Rempotage

Repot Echinopsis calochlora every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Handle the plant carefully to avoid damaging the spines, and use fresh cactus mix when repotting.

Propagation

Propagate Echinopsis calochlora through offsets or seeds. Offsets can be removed and planted in a separate pot once they are large enough. Allow the offsets to dry for a few days before planting to prevent rot. Seeds can be sown in a well-draining soil mix and kept in a warm, bright location.

Taille

Pruning is generally not required for Echinopsis calochlora. However, you can remove any dead or damaged parts to maintain the plant's appearance.

Toxicité

Echinopsis calochlora is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the spines can cause physical injury if handled carelessly.
