1、 Curing method

1. Soil: when preparing soil for white sandalwood cactus, it is best to choose the mixture of sandy soil and cake fertilizer. Sandy soil has good drainage and humus is rich in nutrients, which is very suitable for its growth

2. Watering: Cactus itself has strong drought resistance, so it is not necessary to water it on time at ordinary times. It is OK to water it after the basin soil is completely dry. It can store water itself. It is OK to be short of water, but do not water it more

3. Light: white sandalwood cactus likes sunshine very much. Usually, it should be exposed to the sun as much as possible, but when the sun is too hot in summer, it's best to give it proper shade

4. Temperature: the temperature of about 20 ℃ is the most suitable for its growth. It doesn't matter in spring and autumn. It needs proper shade in summer. Try to move indoors for breeding in winter

2、 Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: the biggest advantage of white sandalwood cactus is that it will grow seed balls like peanuts on its own body. When it needs to reproduce, it can be picked and put on the soil to survive. After careful maintenance, a new pot of white sandalwood cactus can come out

2. Change the pot: when changing the pot, pay attention to gently tap the flowerpot. When the pot soil is separated, take out the plant. Pay attention not to hurt its roots. Transfer it to a new pot, fix it with soil and pour water once

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Yellowing: the yellowing of white sandalwood is mostly due to the strong sunlight. During breeding, pay attention not to be exposed to the sun. It is easy to get sunburned and even die in high temperature weather

2. Scale beetle: this kind of pest is relatively harmful to it. It will suck the juice of white sandalwood and spread all kinds of bacteria. It is best to kill it at the early stage of discovery. In serious cases, spray it 600 times with 40% dimethoate emulsion

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: white sandalwood cactus has no toxicity, and has high medicinal value in traditional Chinese medicine, so you can rest assured of breeding

2. Whether it can be cultured indoors: white sandalwood is very tall after growing and forming, so it is not recommended to breed indoors. Moreover, the indoor ventilation is not very good, which is very unfavorable to its growth
