Hi all,
I posted this question in the Succulent forum, but thought maybe someone here could answer as well.

Thanks, Cindy
Orchid Cactus question
The key to orchid cactus bloom is providing a winter rest period. From now until the end of January provide cool temps in the 50 to 55 degree range. Allow the potting mix to become quite dry between waterings - just enough to keep leaves from withering. Bright light is not so essential during this period.
In February or perhaps a bit earlier, you may see signs of new growth. Then it is time to increase the light to bright indirect and gradually increase the water and fertilizer frequency.
Thanks for the help Will, good to hear from you.
Cindy
