What to do when a clivia gets its flower stalk stuck in spring? Teaching you the correct way to handle it

1. Raise the temperature

1. Cause: If the temperature at which it is kept is too low to meet the minimum requirement for its stalk to emerge, it will be unable to emerge normally, and the problem of a stuck stalk will occur.

2. Handling method: Move it to a location above 18°C, preferably above 20°C, for care. This is more conducive to its stalk emerging.

2. Increase nutrients

1. Cause: It needs nutrients to bloom, and producing a flower stalk also requires nutrient support. If you do not apply flower fertilizer in time during care and let it lack nutrients, then the problem of a stuck stalk may occur.

2. Handling method: Apply some supplementary flower fertilizer. Choose a fertilizer with relatively high phosphorus and potassium content, and after diluting it, apply it to the flower.

3. Tie the leaves to promote flowering

1. Cause: If too much nitrogen fertilizer is applied during care, its leaves will grow vigorously and take away the space and nutrients originally used for the stalk to emerge, causing the plant to be unable to emerge normally.

2. Handling method: Use rubber bands or similar items to tie the leaves on both sides of the plant together separately, leaving more space in the middle. Also stop applying nitrogen fertilizer and apply more phosphorus fertilizer to promote the growth of its flower stalk.
