Kalanchoe

Seeing so many Kalanchoe flowers blooming everywhere in the pot really makes flower lovers kneel down. Are you eager to know how to grow them? Huahua will reveal the secret to you!

Key points for caring for Kalanchoe

1. Breathable soil is the key

The master recommends that you choose earthenware pots and use slightly acidic sandy soil. When planting, put a layer of coal slag or broken tiles at the bottom of the pot, and add some bone meal or nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers as base fertilizer to ensure that the flowers have enough nutrients.

2. Control water and apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers

Kalanchoe is a succulent plant, so the soil only needs to be kept slightly moist, watering it when it is dry and wetting it when it is wet. In summer, water it about once every four or five days, and in winter, water it once a week or so.

Apply compound fertilizer once every half a month. To promote more colorful flowers, you can spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once a month.

3. Adequate lighting is essential

Kalanchoe can tolerate a semi-shady environment, but sufficient light conditions are also best. Ensure at least four hours of light a day, and repot it every half a month to make the plant fuller.
