• Water: Water only when soil is completely dry, typically every 2-4 weeks. Prefers to be underwatered rather than overwatered. Can survive 6+ weeks without water if needed.
• Humidity: Tolerates any humidity level - no misting or special care needed.
• Feeding: Fertilize once every 2-3 months during spring and summer with diluted liquid fertilizer. Honestly, it's optional - this plant thrives on neglect.
• Temperature: Comfortable in normal household temperatures (55°F-85°F). Very forgiving.
• Soil: Use well-draining cactus or succulent mix. Standard houseplant soil works too.
