Latest: After Christmas cactus and kalanchoe bloom, give them a trim and a bit of fertilizer, and they will bloom continuously and grow into a bursting pot
Kalanchoe and Christmas cactus are flowers that many people love very much. When kalanchoe and Christmas cactus bloom, they are extremely beautiful. Placing them at home not only adds color to the home but also makes people feel cheerful, which is very good. But some people say that the kalanchoe and Christmas cactus they grow hardly bloom at all, and they feel that they have watered and fertilized and so on according to the habits of kalanchoe and Christmas cactus, but they do not know the reason, and they just do not bloom. In fact, it may be because of pruning.
1. Christmas cactus
After the Christmas cactus blooms, if we want it to bloom, we need to cut off the Christmas cactus flowers and cut off the wilted leaves or damaged leaves. This allows the leaves to grow better. It is best to fertilize once more, which can supplement some of the nutrients consumed by the Christmas cactus during blooming. After another period of time, apply a potassium fertilizer once more, and after two or three times it can bloom.
But at this time the leaves may become much thinner because the nutrient content is not quite sufficient. At this point, when growing the Christmas cactus again, it is best to make the leaves thicker. You need to apply some multi-element organic fertilizer, once every half month. After a period of time, new buds will grow at the top, and the leaves will also become much thicker.
2. Kalanchoe
Kalanchoe is deeply loved by many people because of its beautiful meaning, and kalanchoe flowers are also very beautiful. After kalanchoe finishes blooming, promptly cut off the faded flowers. Do not underestimate this cutting of the flowers. If they can be cut off in time and a little fertilizer is applied, it can continue to bloom again. Ah, when pruning, pay attention to pruning at the places where there are many flower buds at the small leaves of the kalanchoe. It is really amazing.
There is also a method for kalanchoe to have a long flowering period. When kalanchoe is blooming normally, we should pay more attention to watering the kalanchoe, and usually pay attention to maintaining the humidity for the kalanchoe. In this way, each time the kalanchoe blooms, the flowering period can last as long as one to two months.
