It depends upon the type of cactus, the season, and the environment. But generally, cactus plants grow better if they're watered less. Generally, they should be watered only when their soil is almost but not completely dry. That's during the growing season. During dormancy, they shouldn't be watered at all.
Most plants don't like to be non stop waterlogged or wet. Overwatering damages plant tissue and encourages fungal problems such as stem base rot. Overwatering and waterlogging can be avoided by using a moisture meter, to tell when moisture is almost completely absent from soil. It's at that point that the cactus plant needs water, during the growing season.

Cacti will die if watered to much, it is best to water them when the soil has dried out completely. It is better to water less often than more.
Do plants grow better if you water them once or twice a week?
It depends on the type of plant, its specific water needs, and the soil it is planted in. In general, it is better to water plants deeply and less frequently to encourage roots to grow deeper into the soil. However, some plants may require more frequent watering, especially if they are in containers or have shallow roots. It's best to research the specific watering needs of each plant to promote healthy growth.

Where are cactus plants the dominant vegetation?
Cactus plants are the dominant vegetation in the desert. They grow in harsh, severe environments in which they have no strong plant competitors. This is another way in which they differ from jungle cactus. In the humid, moist environment of the tropical jungle, cactus plants face competition from other vegetation. But they have a working relationship with trees upon whose trunks and branches they anchor their airy, soil-less roots.
How do cactus adapt to the desert?
There are many ways in which the cacti plants have adapted to the desert including needing less water to live. These cacti plants have also developed very sharp needles to prevent animals from taking the water inside.
Why are cactus found in desert region?
Cacti are found in desert regions because they are able to thrive in arid environments due to their ability to store water in their stems and reduce water loss through specialized adaptations like a waxy cuticle and reduced leaf surface area. These adaptations allow cacti to survive in harsh desert conditions with limited water availability.
How would the lack of leaves help cacti survive?
Cacti have adapted to store water in their stems instead of leaves, which helps them survive in dry conditions. This reduces water loss through transpiration and allows cacti to thrive in arid environments by storing water for long periods. Additionally, the lack of leaves minimizes the surface area for evaporation, helping cacti conserve water.
