3. How should Kalanchoe be grown in winter so it won't freeze to death?

Kalanchoe is not cold-tolerant, so management work must be strengthened in winter so it won't freeze to death. The specific growing points are as follows:

1. Temperature requirements: What temperature is best?

In winter, Kalanchoe grows best at 12-15 degrees. If the temperature is below 5 degrees, the leaves will turn red and soft, and the flowering period will be delayed. If it is above 25 degrees, flowering will be inhibited. Therefore, heat preservation measures should be taken well. Especially in the north, the temperature must be controlled well. If the heating is turned on, make sure the temperature is below 25 degrees, so that Kalanchoe will not fail to bloom.

2. Light requirements: What are the light requirements?

Kalanchoe likes light but is not tolerant of strong light, so in winter, move it to a place with good light as much as possible, but the light duration should not be too long. Generally, 8 hours of scattered light per day is enough.

3. Water requirements: How should it be watered?

Kalanchoe does not have high water requirements. Generally, when the potting soil is on the dry side, just water a small amount. Do not water too much, to avoid water accumulation causing drought-flood damage or freezing damage, which can lead to plant death. When watering, the water temperature should be as close as possible to the indoor temperature, to avoid a large temperature difference that stimulates the plant and prevents it from blooming.

4. Fertilization requirements: How should it be fertilized?

Kalanchoe does not have high fertilizer requirements, but if you want it to bloom more, you need to apply an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer to ensure sufficient nutrients and rapid flowering.

Overall, Kalanchoe can be grown in places such as the bedroom, living room, study, and balcony, but in winter, water, fertilizer, light, and other requirements must be strengthened so it can overwinter safely and bloom many flowers the following year.
