Question
i know i should water my cactus 2 to 3 weeks but i dont know how much water i should give it... ex: tsp tbl spoon...wat? i have a moon cactus

Answer
Nick,

Water it like you would a normal plant (soak it). But, then let the soil dry out before you water again. The bottom part of the moon cactus is actually a tropical cactus and needs more water than a desert type. Hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Greg
