Reason for not blooming: The soil is not suitable

Gardenia likes acidic soil. The land in the north is alkaline. Over time, the soil will be affected and nutrients will be insufficient, so the gardenia will naturally not bloom.

Solution:

You can add some ferrous sulfate to improve the soil when watering, and you can also apply 10% alum fertilizer water as topdressing. You can also ferment the peels of highly acidic fruits such as pineapples, oranges, and grapefruits and put them in the soil.

Reason for not blooming: insufficient fertilization

Gardenia likes fertilizer. If there is insufficient fertilizer, the plant will grow poorly and there will be no nutrients available for flowering.

Solution:

1. During the growing period of gardenia, apply more decomposed cake fertilizer, and fertilize once every 10 days or so. Starting from April, spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once a week at a concentration of 1:2000 until flower buds appear on most branches of the gardenia.

2. After buds appear, water the roots twice with potassium dihydrogen phosphate to enhance the plant's resistance to stress and promote larger and more fragrant flowers. If you find that the flower buds are cracking and turning white, stop fertilizing.

Rose

There are many varieties of roses, and the flowers are large and colorful when they bloom, so many people choose to grow roses. However, many flower lovers have reported that the roses they cultivate only grow branches but do not bloom. What is going on?

Reasons for not blooming: insufficient soil fertility

If the soil for planting roses is poor or has not been changed for a long time, it will lead to insufficient soil fertility and lack of nutrients, especially lack of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, which will affect the differentiation of flower buds and make flowering impossible.

Solution:

1. Apply more fertilizers. It is best to apply fertilizers when the roses are dormant in January and February. This way, the fertilizer can gradually ferment into fertilizer liquid and penetrate into the roots with watering.

2. May is the peak growth period of roses. Fertilize about once every 10 days. You can use cake fertilizer or decomposed and fermented chicken manure in a ratio of 3:7. Stop fertilizing in November.

Reason for not blooming: long-term lack of pruning

If the rose is not pruned for a long time, it will lead to too many branches, which will disperse the nutrients and reduce the nutrients supplied to the flower buds, making it impossible for flower buds to form.

Solution:

1. Roses should be pruned around December every year to trim off side branches, diseased branches and concentric branches. After the flowers bloom in May, 2/3 or 1/2 of the branches that have bloomed should be cut off to give it a chance to grow flower buds again.

2. In order to make the flowers bloom bigger, you can thin out the rose buds and pick off some of the buds to concentrate the nutrients, which can extend the flowering period.

Jasmine

Jasmine has white flowers and a fragrant smell. It is a popular flower that can bloom continuously for several months in a suitable growing environment. However, many flower lovers say that their jasmine plants are lush and green, but they do not bloom or bloom very little. What's wrong?

Reason for not blooming: insufficient light

Jasmine loves sunlight very much. If there is insufficient light, the leaves will grow wildly and absorb all the nutrients. The flowers will not get nutrition and will not bloom.

Solution:

Place the jasmine in a sunny place, such as a courtyard, a south-facing balcony, or a windowsill, and ensure that it receives about 10 hours of sunlight a day. This will allow the jasmine to grow buds and then bloom.

Reason for not blooming: lack of fertilizer

If the jasmine receives sufficient light, it is basically lacking in phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.

Solution:

1. Before the jasmine buds form, apply less nitrogen fertilizer and more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. You can use decomposed bone meal, chicken manure, etc. as base fertilizer, and then use quick-acting phosphorus and potassium fertilizers or alum fertilizer water for top dressing. Water once a week to encourage the plants to bud.

2. After jasmine blooms, you should change the pot and soil in time to keep the soil nutritious enough, improve the situation of not blooming, and make the jasmine flowers big and fragrant.

Kalanchoe

The flowering period of Kalanchoe is from December to May of the following year. During this period, as long as the plant is properly maintained, it will continue to bloom beautiful flowers.

Reason for not blooming: wrong light

Too much or too little light will affect the flowering of the plant. If the light is too strong, the plant will easily wilt, affecting its growth and development; uneven light exposure will cause plant deformities and affect flowering.

Solution:

1. Place the Kalanchoe in a well-lit area on the balcony, provide appropriate shade in the summer, and expose it to normal light at other times to ensure that it receives more than 4 hours of light every day.

2. Rotate the direction of the flower pot frequently to ensure that the plant receives even light. Rotate the flower pot 180 degrees every half a month.

Reason for not blooming: too little fertilizer

Kalanchoe likes fertilizer and its flowering period can last up to 6 months, so it needs a lot of nutrients. In the absence of fertilizer, the flower buds of Kalanchoe will differentiate slowly. Even if the plant has many branches, it will be difficult to guarantee flowering due to lack of nutrition.

Solution:

1. From November to October of the following year, it is basically the time when the flower buds of Kalanchoe are in the late differentiation and peak flowering period. It is also the time when the plant accumulates nutrients, and the demand for fertilizer is very high. You can apply phosphorus-containing fertilizers once a week, such as fish fertilizer, superphosphate and other fertilizers, to promote the differentiation of flower buds.

2. You can apply a dilute nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer or a 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once a month to prevent the flowers from becoming smaller and the color lighter due to lack of fertilizer in the later stage of flowering.

camellia

There are many varieties of camellia, including single-petal and double-petal camellia, and the colors include red, purple, white, yellow, and even camellia with colorful patterns. Its flowering period is very long, from October to May of the following year, and the peak flowering period is usually from January to March.

Reason for not blooming: Incorrect humidity

If the camellia lacks water, the plant will grow poorly and will not form flower buds. Even if it has flower buds, it will not bloom.

Solution:

1. Water the plant about once every 3-5 days on sunny days to keep the soil moist. If the camellia pot is relatively large, you can water it once every 5-7 days.

2. After 10 am on a sunny day, you can spray water on the camellia plants to maintain the air humidity.

Reasons for not blooming: pests and diseases

Camellia is susceptible to diseases and pests during its bud stage, such as aphids and rust mites. These pests will erode the buds and affect the flowering of camellia.

Solution:

1. If aphids are found on camellia, you can spray a 1000-fold solution of 40% omethoate emulsifiable concentrate on the plants to kill the aphids.

2. If rust ticks appear, you can mix 50 grams of laundry detergent, 10 milliliters of diesel and 10 kilograms of water evenly, then spray the solution onto the camellia plants to eliminate the rust ticks.
