i water mine weekly. It really depends upon how much humidity and heat you have in the room that your cactus is in.Helpful Reply -

When a Christmas cactus blooms it does take more water but I wait until the soil is dry and then give it a good soaking. If you are letting the pot drain into a saucer, then you need to remove that water.Helpful Reply -

Mine is about every 2 weeks. It should be allowed to dry out. And let it drain in the sink when you water, not in a saucer. It does not like "wet feet". Plenty of sun.Helpful Reply -

I water mine when they're dry. I put water in a big tray, then let it drink as much as it wants for a couple hours, then take it out.Helpful Reply -
