    • Use the “soak and dry” method<\/strong>\u2014water when the soil is completely dry<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • In summer<\/strong>, water every 1-2 weeks<\/strong>, depending on temperature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • In winter<\/strong>, reduce watering to once a month<\/strong> to prevent rot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Avoid water sitting on the leaves or stem to prevent fungal issues<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      \ud83c\udf31 Soil<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n

      • A mix of sand, perlite, and gritty soil<\/strong> works well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Avoid moisture-retaining soil to prevent root rot.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        \ud83c\udf21\ufe0f Temperature & Humidity<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Thrives in 65\u201385\u00b0F (18\u201329\u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Not frost-tolerant<\/strong>\u2014keep above 50\u00b0F (10\u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Prefers low to moderate humidity<\/strong>; excess humidity can lead to fungal issues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          \ud83c\udf3f Fertilizing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            • Minimal pruning needed\u2014remove dead or yellowing leaves<\/strong> to encourage new growth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Propagate through stem cuttings or seeds<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Wear gloves when handling, as Euphorbias produce a toxic, milky sap<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              \ud83d\udea8 Common Problems & Solutions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
