How to fertilize Euphorbia bicompacta
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Euphorbia bicompacta after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Is this normal? Please tell me i'm right🥺🙏 @SirLiquorice #euphorbia I don't understand why nobody notices this on reddit i mean the lower part of the euphorbia is light green and it is rising up to the deep green on top of the graft and it can be seen on the growlight that's above it. Has anyone see this happened before and please tell me the answer that is it going to be fine or not?😟

My plants just grow straight up, one is taller than me. I have found pruning leaves a permanent scar. How do you get them to be more bushy? #Euphorbiabicompacta #Euphorbia

Can she be saved? #Euphorbia My African Milk bush plant has slowly been dying, I think. Can anyone give me tips on saving it or maybe propageting it? Should I? I did it once and the one is thriving. Any suggestions are gladly welcomed. Thank you! 🪴

What can I do to make the tar part get bigger? The base has grown and produced shoots off of it, but I want the sticky head to get bigger. What can I do to help it? #Euphorbia

So how often do you water pointsetters. App says two weeks. If I did that I would be cleaning up a bunch of leaves. I find 7-10 days works. Any other suggested schedules out there? #Euphorbia

I finally got one of my wish list plants today, Euphorbia Lactea or its common name ‘Ghost Cactus’. I’ve been wanting one for so long! They usually are pretty expensive so that’s why I hadn’t gotten one yet. Online & at local nurseries they go for about 50$ or so. But I found this one at Home Depot for 20$ & it came with a pot! I felt like that was a pretty good steal, & there was only one so it was coming home with me! I went for perlite, & this Home Depot was out too! This is the second store that was out of it. 😒 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewPlants #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #CactusClique #Cactus #Cacti #cacticollect #Euphorbia #ghostcactus #variegatedplants #GrowingSuccs #PlantTherapy
