For cactus plants, you'll want to use a fertilizer that is specifically formulated for succulents or cacti. Look for a fertilizer with a low nitrogen content and higher levels of phosphorus and potassium, as these nutrients promote flowering and strong root development. Additionally, it's a good idea to dilute the fertilizer to half or quarter strength to prevent over-fertilization, which can damage the plants. Always follow the instructions on the fertilizer packaging for best results. As for Euphorbia, it's important to note that while some species are commonly called "cacti," they aren't true cacti and may have slightly different fertilizer needs, so it's best to research specific care requirements for your Euphorbia species.
