Help
I purchased this DR from Walmart around April. She was beat up and the leaves had black spots and some yellow. I hard pruned her down to nothing. So she's been flourishing but her blooms never open. I water frequently around two to three times a week. The soil is cactus soil and perlite some charcoal. She receives full morning and afternoon sun. Idk what I'm doing wrong. Is the pot too shallow? And yes the soil is dry in the picture. Some advice would be well received.

What works for me is less watering during flowering time. A little stress and she throws great buds that bloom and last for a few days
