Why doesn't the sweet olive bloom?

1. Its flowering period

Generally speaking, its flowering period is around July to October. If no flowers bloom during this period, it basically proves that there is something wrong with our maintenance of the plant. Specifically divided into the following categories.

2. Lighting issues

If it is placed in a semi-hidden or completely shaded place for a long time and does not grow towards the sun for a long time, it is normal that the flowers will not bloom. Even if they bloom, there will be very few flowers and the fragrance of the flowers will be weak. Therefore, it is necessary to place it in a well-lit place. Don't worry about too long a lighting period, as this is a very light-loving species. Moreover, light is essential for it to bloom.

3. Temperature problem

The temperature must be suitable for it to bloom and bloom more. During its flowering period, the temperature in most areas has not yet reached a very low period. However, the temperature in some areas has begun to drop or the flowering period has been delayed, so the temperature issue must be considered. It is more suitable to keep the temperature between 20 and 25 degrees.

4. Water and fertilizer issues

If there is a problem in these two aspects, too much or too little, it may cause the plant to not bloom. As for water, keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. As for fertilizer, it is sufficient to apply fertilizer once a week. The concentration must not be too high. Moreover, give more fertilizers such as P and K during the pregnancy period.

5. Pest and disease problems

Infection by disease or insect pests will affect its flowering. Therefore, what we need to do is to discover it in time and then take preventive measures.
