Hi - I've had my Christmas cactus plants outside all summer and have just moved them inside for the winter. I live in eastern Massachusetts. The plants usually go into a full bloom about a month or so after coming indoors. Is there a way to delay the blooming so that it comes closer to the holidays?
Thanks

Dont cut on the light..... give it lots of light..... put in a souther facing window and give artificial light for 15 hours a day
Decreasing day light length is what triggers plants like christmas cactus and poinsettia to bloom
