So my Thanksgiving cactus looks like it's going to bloom again, I haven't given it any fertilizer or Epsom salt since probably October I'm wondering if I should give it some Epsom salt to help it produce blooms? 🧡🌵🙏

I avoid watering when it blooms so it doesn’t drop all the buds. That was my first mistake with them 😊

Oh really mine did drop them all and I thought that it was because I didn't water it very much but I do have a water meter so I only water when it's dry it cut all droopy and I was like oh my gosh cuz it was pretty dry but it got droopy and they fell off and I think in December and I didn't think it was going to bloom again because my Christmas cactuses never did but it appears to be so no Epsom salt or water?🤦‍♀️😩
