I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking. But here’s my care:

I have it in a terra cotta pot in a very airy mix of orchid bark, perlite, and fox farm ocean forest. I water when dry. It sits in an east facing window. (All also true for my christmas cactus.)

This thanksgiving cactus was put into a pot too large that held onto water for two long. They are poor communicators and I found out over the summer, as I noticed no new growth, it had been quietly rotting. When I repotted I added a bit of organic root stimulant.

Very pleased to say it’s now budding blooms — hadn’t expected them this year after all the trauma!
