Evenly spaced x-ticks labels

I have a dataframe that I have plotted. I want to label the x-axis using a df_dt dataframe column shown below
Date
2007_8
2008_8
2009_8
2010_8
2011_8
2012_8
2013_8
I have the following plot code
plt.style.use('seaborn-colorblind')
ax=df_final.T.plot()
ax.set_xticks(np.arange(len(df_dt)))
ax.set_xticklabels(df_dt['Date'])
However the x-ticks are compressed to one end of the plot to be meaningful. I searched through some threads and most of them suggest adding ax.set_xticks. However that doesnt seem to work for me as seen below. How do i fix the spacing in my x-axis?

Apparently,df_dtis much shorter thandf_final, so only the firstlen(df_dt)points are labeled.
