# What cactus and succulent fertilizer do people use? I prefer liquid…

_Geplaatst door My Leafy Life op 2026-10-06_

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.

Check out Cactus Jones 👍

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

I also use Espoma cactus and succulent.
