How to take care of a tiny plant

🌵Potting Tutorial

1. Add soil to the white liner pot — fill about halfway. Smaller plants may require slightly more soil, while larger plants may require slightly less.
2. Place the cactus on top, making sure it is right-side up. Do not bury the cactus into the soil.
   • If it feels loose or sits too high, remove some soil.
   • If it sits too low, add more soil.
3. Wipe the white liner pot clean if needed.
4. Place the white liner pot into the magnetic pot.
5. Add a few drops of water using the included dropper to settle the soil.

That is it — your tiny cactus is home 🌱

🕰️ Rooting 

• Be patient with your little one!
• Even in perfect light and warmth, initial roots can take 4–8 weeks.
• If your home is cooler or dimmer, it might take longer. 
  

☀️ Light

• A sunny window is best!
• No window? Bright room lights work too.

💦 Water

• A few drops every 2 weeks.
• Overwatering = cactus nightmare.
