What should I be careful with when I water my Hedge cactus in different seasons, climates, or during different growing periods?

Learn More
The Hedge cactus growing outdoors can thrive with rainfall, but when it’s planted in a pot, you need to be careful while Hedge cactus is still in the growing stage. One way to prevent overwatering is to check the top bottom inches of the soil for moisture. Once again, you need it to be dry so you can water it again. If you're unsure of the amount and the frequency, especially during the growing phase, go with underwatering and slightly increase it when you see a need. It's always a good idea to take a picture of the Hedge cactus and note how it looks after watering it. You can take things further by using moisture meters or hygrometers to check the air and soil moisture. These tools are available from various shops and can be valuable when you want to know the readings for humidity and water.
