Watering:<\/strong> Very little watering! Moderate in spring\/summer and less frequent in winter. Cacti tolerate periods of moderate drought. The best way to check if your plants need water is the \u201cfinger test\u201d: insert your finger as deep as possible into the soil and water only if it feels dry. If in doubt, wait a few days before watering. Watch out for saucers with standing water during winter!
