Opuntia Subulata Eve's Needle Cactus Plant Care

Watering:

Eve's Needle Crest Cactus prefers infrequent but deep watering. During the growing season in spring and summer, water the plant thoroughly once the top inch of soil is dry, allowing excess water to drain away completely. Reduce watering in the dormant winter months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings to prevent root rot.

Light:

This cactus thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Place it in a location where it can receive plenty of sunlight throughout the day, such as a south or west-facing window. However, protect it from intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day, as it can cause sunburn on the delicate stems.

Temperature:

Opuntia subulata prefers warm temperatures typical of its native habitat. Keep the plant in an environment where temperatures range between 70°F to 85°F (21°C to 29°C) during the growing season. In winter, it can tolerate cooler temperatures down to 50°F (10°C), but it's essential to protect it from frost.

Soil Mix:

Provide well-draining soil for Eve's Needle Crest Cactus to prevent waterlogged conditions, which can lead to root rot. A mixture of cactus potting mix or sandy soil with perlite or pumice works well to ensure proper drainage and aeration for the roots.

Humidity:

This cactus species is adapted to arid conditions and does not require high humidity levels. In fact, it thrives in dry air typical of indoor environments. Avoid misting the plant or placing it in excessively humid conditions, as it may promote fungal diseases.

Fertilizer:

During the growing season in spring and summer, feed Opuntia subulata with a balanced cactus fertilizer diluted to half strength. Apply the fertilizer every four to six weeks to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth. Avoid fertilizing during the dormant winter months.

Toxicity:

While Opuntia subulata is not considered highly toxic to humans or pets, its spines can cause irritation if touched. It's advisable to handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental injury.

Opuntia subulata, Eve's Needle Crest Cactus, is a fascinating addition to any succulent collection, appreciated for its slender stems and unique appearance. By providing proper care in terms of watering, light, temperature, soil mix, humidity, fertilizer, and handling with caution due to its spines, enthusiasts can enjoy the beauty of this cactus species for years to come. With attention to its specific needs, Eve's Needle Crest Cactus can thrive and become a captivating focal point in any indoor or outdoor setting.

Update: Chemical smell?
Edit: Something seems to be different with the current version. Why does "pure tallow, beeswax, and raw honey" smell (and taste!) like cheap perfume? Ick. Good luck getting that scent out of your brain. And what the heck is it? I don't know why they changed it but it unfortunately wasn't an improvement. It's too bad. It made a great foot balm. Pretty moisturizing and the size and form factor made it easy to apply. Hope it comes back the way it was. _______ This has great/safe ingredients. It's huge. And the company seems legit so I tried it. I've given it a go and it's okay but it seems like the proportions would need to be adjusted to be more of a balm. It's good… just a little too greasy. This feels more like I just put my tallow moisturizer on my lips instead. I get that from Fancy Farm and I guess I'm going to have to stock up on theirs if I don't find something else here that has that consistency. (And no seed oils!) Lip balm needs staying power or it just becomes a nuisance.

Finally, a non-toxic chapstick!
So I typically make my own products at home using beef tallow. But I was in dire need of chapstick, and just didn't have any time or energy to do it, so I came across this brand on Amazon and had to try. I love it! Not only is it HUGE, but it is unscented, it's glides on perfectly and my lips feel super moisturized for hours. As with all tallow products, you have to be super careful about letting this stuff sit in the heat. So if you were planning on keeping it in your purse or car, it'll definitely turn into a ooey gooey mess. I keep mine in my nightstand in an air-conditioned room, and even then it gets a bit too warm on our hot 103F Summer days. Nevertheless, I recommend to those who are looking for a non-toxic chapstick that super moisturizing.

Tried the wife’s stuff, and it’s a better tool for the job.
Husband review: The wife ordered this stuff for herself, skeptical about what’s in a lot of cosmetics. I always went straight for good ol’ Carmex; but I tried it once because I was too lazy to dig around for mine. This stuff is sometimes a better tool for the job. I service swimming pools and work outside in the sun, so I sometimes struggle with dehydration & get cracked lips occasionally. I put this on before bed, and it lasts all night so I wake up better off. It’s not medicated (what she wanted), but it’s hydrating. So while I still occasionally use Carmex at work, reapplying a few times to get damaged cracks together, I use this to maintain & finish the job overnight where the other stuff would have just evaporated within an hour. Another thing: it’s soft, where chap stick would pull on a sore/crack, this stuff goes on an into damaged places like a lubricant.

Very moisturizing but no honey flavor and can get greasy
The product is very moisturizing, that's for sure. Tube is large which makes for a messy application on a warm day. Was fine when temp dropped to 77 as shown in picture. Better to dab on with your finger regardless imo. No honey scent or flavor whatsoever which is greatly disappointing. I checked multiple times that I didn't accidently order a plain one. Had a faint meaty scent which is barely noticeable (I'm okay with that knowing it's all natural versus something with chemicals) but then it shouldn't be called "honey glazed". Would have been 5 stars if i wasnt misled and it was advertised as plain (or indicated that you don't taste the honey but it's there to neutralize the tallow flavor), also it could use some (more) beeswax to make it more stable. Suggest re-marketing it in a round tin as an all around balm and making a smaller tube with more beeswax for a lip balm. Versus a traditional lip balm, would recommend this product if you are okay with the nuances noted above.
