How to prolong the flowering period of Kalanchoe

How to prolong the flowering period of Kalanchoe

1. Potting soil

It is a misconception that plants should grow big if they have plenty of soil in the pot, a large pot and sufficient nutrient space. The size of the flowerpot should be appropriate to the type of flower and the size of the plant. A flowerpot that is too large will cause water imbalance and make it difficult to control the dryness and wetness of the soil in the pot, which will cause the plant to grow poorly.

2. Water

During the flowering period, the moisture of the potting soil should be kept slightly moist, not too dry or too wet. Determine how to water the flowers based on daily weather conditions and the flower's microenvironment at home. Do not water the flowers every three or seven days. Just make sure the soil is slightly moist. Avoid complete drying out and waterlogging during the entire flowering period.

3. Lighting

If you want the flowering period to be long enough, you need to ensure sufficient light and appropriate light. If there is insufficient light, the branches and leaves will grow too long, the plant shape will be disordered, and the flowers will wither earlier. When entering summer, it is necessary to avoid being exposed to strong direct sunlight and provide appropriate shade around noon so that it can bloom better and extend the flowering period.

4. Pests and diseases

Aphids and powdery mildew are prone to occur during maintenance, so we must observe the diseases and pests carefully. Moderate intervention is needed in the early stages to prevent it from expanding.
