What cactus and succulent fertilizer do people use? I prefer liquid but I'm willing to try anything. I only have two cactuses but a lot of other succulents. Here's what I have plus two Christmas cactuses.

    I use a granular fertilizer just for succulents and cacti. It lasts about 9 months. Less trouble. Any reputable brand should be fine. Here is what I’ve been using.

      I was looking at that today since it's Prime Days. Thanks for the tip.

    Succulents barely need plant food. But if you really want to make sure they grow faster, I use espoma liquid food

      I use Espoma Cactus and Succulent food but it's gotten expensive. But what hasn't since COVID.

      Do you use it a lot? Mine has lasted like 2 years and I still have about half a bottle left. Maybe you should just forget to feed them more and it will last longer loll
