Kalanchoe in autumn: with every autumn rain comes a chill, sprinkle a little of this to keep out the cold, and it will grow like crazy and burst into bloom

It is often said that once autumn arrives, "every autumn rain brings a chill," and many flowers and plants turn yellow and wither, giving a feeling of decline, but some flowers are in their peak growing and blooming season, and kalanchoe is one of them, growing like crazy with buds forming nonstop.

Although kalanchoe grows vigorously after autumn arrives, the drop and change in temperature can still have a certain effect on it, so you should sprinkle some of "it" into the pot to resist the invasion of cold, and it will grow like crazy and burst into bloom!

Whether kalanchoe is boosting its resistance or promoting bud formation and flowering, it needs plenty of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and some trace elements, and the "it" mentioned here refers to worm castings; worm castings are called the king of organic fertilizer, rich in nutrients, can be absorbed directly by kalanchoe, and do not affect the root system, making them an excellent flower fertilizer.

After rain, you can go to a park to collect some worm castings, then leave them in the sun for 3-5 days to dry them out completely, then use a hammer or similar to crush them into powder for later use.

You can sprinkle the worm casting powder directly onto the surface of the potting soil, just a thin layer is enough; when you water, the powder will seep into the soil along with the water flow and then be absorbed by the kalanchoe. Sprinkling 2-3 times a month is enough to promote thicker roots, crazy growth, stronger resistance, and nonstop bud formation and flowering.

Kalanchoe is a short-day plant and is sensitive to the photoperiod; just keep the daily light exposure at about 9-10 hours, and cover it with a plastic bag or box for the rest of the time so it is completely in a dark environment, which can promote rapid differentiation of flower buds and the growth of flower buds, making the flowers bloom more brightly.
