No matter how thick the rhizome of a kalanchoe is, if watered improperly, it will rot no matter what

During the growing season of kalanchoe, spraying Zhuangjingling frequently can make the plant stems stout, the leaves thick, the leaf color fresh and tender, and the plant lush. Because kalanchoe is a succulent plant with a high water content in its body, it should not be watered too frequently at ordinary times. If the inside of the flower pot is too wet, the roots easily rot and the plant dies. Usually water once every 2 to 3 days, and after about half a month it will take root, and after 3 to 4 weeks small buds will grow at the leaf axils.

Kalanchoe is a light-loving plant, but when the light is too strong it will cause harm to the plant, so during the dormant period shade treatment should be carried out in time, or during periods of strong light, move the plant to an environment with weaker light. Do not expose it to direct sun; under diffused light, the kalanchoe can not only safely pass through the dormant period but also continue to maintain a growing state.

During the growing season, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied to promote healthy plant growth, while before the flowering period, a compound fertilizer mainly based on phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied appropriately, generally applying a thin fertilizer once a week. During the flowering period, try not to fertilize, or spray some dilute potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution on the leaves. After flowering, nitrogen fertilizer can continue to be applied to ensure rejuvenation and growth the following year.
