Instructions d'entretien

Mammillaria polythele thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers warm temperatures. It is well-suited to dry conditions and does not require high humidity. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. During its dormancy period in the cooler months, reduce watering significantly.

Sol

This cactus prefers sandy soil with excellent drainage. A cactus or succulent potting mix is ideal. Ensure the soil dries out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

Engrais

Fertilize Mammillaria polythele with a balanced cactus fertilizer, such as 5-10-10, during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, about once a month, to avoid over-fertilization.

Rempotage

Repot Mammillaria polythele 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 its tubercles and roots.

Propagation

Propagate Mammillaria polythele 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.

Taille

Pruning is generally not required for Mammillaria polythele. However, you can remove any dead or damaged parts to maintain its appearance.

Toxicité

Mammillaria polythele is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always best to handle cacti with care to avoid injury from their spines.
