Kalanchoe has thick green leaves and bright colors all year round. It not only symbolizes good luck, but is also very easy to grow. Its flowering period is very long, from November to May or June of the following year . Therefore, Kalanchoe is very popular among people. However, if you want the leaves of the Kalanchoe to be dark green and shiny, lush and leafy, and to bloom every time, you have to start with pruning. In the following three situations, the Kalanchoe needs to be pruned quickly, and the more you prune, the more vigorous it will be, and it will bloom into a large flower ball. Prune after blooms fade Every year after the Kalanchoe finishes blooming, it is best to prune it significantly before July , so that the cut branches will be easier to propagate. After pruning, the Kalanchoe should be placed in a cool and ventilated place with sufficient scattered light, and the soil in the pot should be kept moist. If the soil is too wet, it will easily cause root rot or cause the plant to grow too tall, which will affect the next flowering. Pruning during seedling stageWhen the Kalanchoe seedlings grow to 5-6 pairs of leaves, they are pinched . According to the growth situation, the pinching is repeated. We pinch and shape it according to our own aesthetics and preferences to promote more branches. Adult pruningWhen the Kalanchoe grows into an adult plant, it will grow very lushly, with side branches and cross branches appearing, and when it is so dense that there is no air permeability, we need to cross it out. Cut off the weak branches, branches that affect the beauty of the plant, and the old and yellow leaves at the bottom. This will increase air permeability and light transmission, allowing sunlight to reach the entire flower branch, promoting the growth of new branches, leaves and flower buds, and remove the excess parts. The Kalanchoe can absorb enough nutrients to make the overall plant more vigorous. |
