These plants are grown in apartment or in a temperated green house; they can be brought outdoors when the minimum temperatures are above 15° C. Succulent plants can also be cultivated in a cold green house, with temperatures which must be below 5°C for many species, but in this case it’s necessary to keep them totally dry.The Stenocereus should be preferably located in a place where it can have at least a few hours a day of direct solar light.
Cultivation Stenocereus
These plants are succulent . Stenocereus Is an evergreen; during autumn iIt assumes a greenwhite colouring; the adult specimens are medium in size and reach 2 m high. When growing these plants tend to go up, developing very little in width, and they tend to have a columnar development.
Fertilize Stenocereus
In this period of the year, let’s remember to enrich the soil of our succulent plants, using, every 15-20 days, a specific fertilizer; fertilizers for succulent plants must be poor in nitrogen to avoid them from producing too much vegetation which would be easily attacked by fungal diseases.
Water Stenocereus
Let's water abundantly, moistening the soil deeply with 1-2 glasses of water , but let's act only when the substratum is dry, leaving it dry even for 4-5 weeks before watering it. Let’s remember that the succulent plants can withhold water inside their materials, therefore they need to be watered only when the weather is hot.
Pests Stenocereus
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
Mold Stenocereus
