2. How to make more flowers

(1) Appropriate pruning: Many friends believe that the more branches there are, the more flowers there will be. In fact, this view is unscientific. This is because, if there are too many branches, they will consume too many nutrients and affect the growth of flower buds. Moreover, too many branches will appear messy and affect the appearance. Especially for those branches without leaves, it is best not to keep them. It is best to keep strong branches with many buds. After the flowers bloom, they should be cut off in time, otherwise they will also consume nutrients.

(2) Supplementary fertilizer: If you want more flowers, you need sufficient nutrients. The nutrients in the soil may be insufficient, so fertilizer is needed to supplement them. Phosphorus fertilizer, in particular, is very important for more flowering.

(3) Soil selection: This aspect refers to the initial soil selection. It is best to have soil that is water-retaining, fertilizer-retaining, breathable and loose. You can use coconut coir, peat soil and perlite in a ratio of three to one to one.

(4) Good light: If you want more flowers to bloom, you need the help of light. It doesn't need too strong light, scattered light is enough, and the growing environment just shouldn't be too dark.
