Watering
Gymnocalycium Michanovich should be used sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out sufficiently.
Like all cacti, this species is not afraid of drought, but it has a very negative attitude towards constant flooding and can quickly rot.
Water it once or twice a week to keep the soil slightly moist.
In winter, reduce watering; just don't let the soil dry out completely;
One watering per week will be enough. In addition, it is better to use rain or distilled water for irrigation rather than tap water.
