A unique method for Kalanchoe to root quickly without soil or water

May is exactly when Kalanchoe enters its growing season. If you want it to bloom in a full burst, pinch the tops of the Kalanchoe now, which makes it easier for side shoots to grow afterward and lets it bloom in a full burst during the flowering season.

When pinching the tops of Kalanchoe, do not hold back, cut ruthlessly! Generally, to pinch the tops of Kalanchoe, you only need to leave the 2-3 layers of leaves closest to the soil surface, and cut off everything above! The more ruthlessly you cut, the more beautifully the Kalanchoe will bloom in the next flowering season!

After pinching the tops, the leaves left behind can be used for cuttings. In fact, Kalanchoe is considered a type of succulent, so the leaf-cutting method can be used: place the leaves in the air to root and sprout, then plant them in soil. For details, see the following method:

First, trim the remaining flowering branch and observe the slightly raised white dots on the flower stem stalk; these are the rooting points. Generally, make a cut 1 cm below the rooting point, and take the branch above the rooting point for cutting.

After handling the branch, place it in a cool, ventilated place and wait quietly for it to root. When it is time to root, spray water into the air around the cutting branch every day to keep the air moist. This way, after the flowering branch gets enough moisture, it will root faster, and in about five days, the Kalanchoe will have successfully rooted.

Then transplant the rooted Kalanchoe branch into a pot. Choose a seedling tray, plant the rooted end of the Kalanchoe in the soil, and cover it with soil. Once the Kalanchoe grows bigger, move it to a larger pot.

Having said that, do you friends still think Kalanchoe cuttings are actually difficult? The air-rooting method saves a lot of trouble, so try it quickly too!
