Feed your kalanchoe this powerful stuff and it will bloom a second time in less than a month

Recently, quite a few friends have been chatting with me on WeChat, saying that the kalanchoe they grow is doing well but just will not bloom for a long time. Some friends also said that even when it does bloom, the flowers always seem less than vibrant, and compared with those grown by others, the difference is really striking.

For this kind of problem, I think it should be adjusted in the following way, which will guarantee that your kalanchoe can bloom twice in less than a month. Friends who regularly grow kalanchoe know that kalanchoe is a succulent flowering plant and also a short-day flowering plant. If you want it to bloom quickly, you first have to make a little sacrifice with the kalanchoe itself!

First, prune diligently. Kalanchoe that has finished blooming should be pruned diligently, removing those branches that only absorb nutrients and no longer have any prospect of developing, so as to ensure that young buds and tender shoots grow and bloom quickly. At the same time, to better promote earlier blooming in kalanchoe, we should spray a potassium dihydrogen phosphate water solution about 20 days before flowering, once every 10 days, which will better promote flowering.

Second, kalanchoe is a sun-loving short-day plant, so it needs to receive about 6 hours of diffused light each day. If the light is too strong or lasts too long, it will enter a dormant state, which will cause the flowers it produces to be dull in color and not vibrant.

Third, kalanchoe is a succulent flowering plant and does not have very high water requirements. If it is watered too frequently, it will cause root rot. Especially in summer, when temperatures are relatively high, reaching around 35 degrees, kalanchoe will enter a dormant state. At this time it is only maintaining its own life and does not need too many nutrients.

At this time, if you want the kalanchoe to bloom on schedule, you should move it to a relatively shady place that can still receive light, and water it as little as possible, unless the soil has already cracked. Through my own practice, the kalanchoe really did not disappoint my expectations and bloomed on schedule, which also attracted the neighbors around me to come and learn from my experience and admire it.
