Conophytum Calculus

Hi guys, I’m in Canada, I’ve had this cono for a month, how do you water him? I’ve googled and googled and don’t want to kill it, do you use RO or tap water, and how much and when? 😊
2” pot with drainage
Last watered 8 months ago
Oh. My. Gosh!! Can I just say #wishlistplant! @Boymom-plantmom -- LOOK AT THIS!)

What a cool plant. It seems like it's going to need similar care to some of my succs- FAST DRAINING soil seems to be a MUST.

Oh my gosh, it's so cute!

It seems like spring is their dormant period so we're getting close. I didn't see anything about RO water, but if you can collect rainwater (or melted snow) I'd think that would be perfect!

I also use fishtank water on some of my pickier plants- it's got great fertilizer built in!
@sarahsalith thank you, it is soooo cute, it was one of those had to buy purchases! lol. I watered him, but will leave him now to do his thing!!! 😊
Def filtered or rainwater! That is the cutest thing ever ❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️
