Bipolar Easter cactus

Post by CactusBoss »

It's not really a problem it's just really weird. So I usually water my Easter cactus when the soil feels dry and the pads lose water. After about 24 hours the pads thicken up again. The strange thing is that a day or two later the pads seem to lose water again when the soil is still moist and then the next day they seem to gain water. Is there an explanation for this?? It doesn't always work EXACTLY that way but it's still a similar process. The weird thing is that it continues to put out new growth while doing this.
