How to Make Kapok Bloom at Christmas

Pruning control

Principle: This method is to change the growth and development rate of plants by pinching, removing leaves or stripping buds, and thus change their flowering time accordingly.

Specific treatment method: Generally speaking, if pinching is used on plants, the flowering period of the plants will be delayed accordingly. In addition, peeling off a circle of bark on the trunk can allow enough nutrients to condense on the flower branches closer to the top, which is also beneficial for the plant to bloom. Therefore, if you observe that the plant is about to start blooming before Christmas, you can carry out these two treatments, then the flowering period will slow down a bit, and we can see the flowers of the plant on Christmas. In addition, if we cut off some of the side buds of the plant, then its main buds will bloom better. If we remove the top buds, its side buds will bloom relatively better. These two treatments are relative to the flowering location of the plant, and we can also pay attention to them when pruning.

Light Control

Principle: We all know that warm sunlight is one of the essential factors for the flowering of most plants. Well, due to the important role of light, it becomes an important method to regulate flowering period.

Specific steps: Generally speaking, if there is sufficient sunlight, the plant's flowering period will be earlier than when there is insufficient light; of course, if there is too much shade, the flowering period will be delayed. Because the flowering period of this plant is generally in spring, it is natural to make it bloom earlier for Christmas, so the specific treatment is to give the plant more light.
