What to do if the buds of Kalanchoe wither

1. Possible problems during flowering period

During its flowering period, many friends will encounter problems, some of which are quite tricky. The main questions include why the flowering period is shortened, why the flower buds suddenly wither, and why the plants never bloom. Among them, the problem of flower bud withering is relatively common.

2. Causes and Countermeasures

1. Insufficient phosphorus and potassium fertilizers: The plant will consume a lot of nutrients during the flowering period. Sometimes it is not enough to rely solely on the fertilizers in the plant itself and the soil, and it is necessary to supplement it by applying some fertilizers. The fertilizers needed during the flowering period are mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. If these two types of fertilizers are insufficient, the development of the flower buds may suddenly stop, causing them to wither. So, what we need to do is to supplement it appropriately.

2. The fertilizer concentration is too high: Fertilizer is sometimes necessary, but you should pay attention to the concentration of fertilizer. Its root system is relatively weak, and its ability to absorb fertilizer is also weak. If the concentration is too high and it is used continuously, it is likely to cause fertilizer damage and cause the flower buds to wither. This requires us to pay attention to the concentration when applying fertilizer and dilute the liquid fertilizer with water.
