코피아포아 솔라리스 (블랑코 엔칼라다, 칠레) 씨앗

Soil type: Use a highly porous, mineral-rich cactus mix with excellent drainage; incorporate pumice or coarse sand.

Watering frequency: Water sparingly during the growing season (spring to early autumn); allow soil to fully dry between waterings. Keep completely dry in winter.

Light exposure: Requires full sun to partial shade; strong light enhances spine color and compact growth.

Temperature requirements: Ideal temperatures range from 15–30°C (59–86°F); protect from frost and avoid exposure below 5°C (41°F).

Fertilization: Apply a diluted, low-nitrogen cactus fertilizer once a month during the growing season.

Pruning: Not needed; remove old flowers or damaged tissue gently.

Common pests: Watch for mealybugs and spider mites, especially in greenhouse conditions.

Any other relevant care practices: Ensure good air circulation and avoid excessive humidity to prevent root rot.
