When does the goldfish plant bloom?

When does it bloom?

Theoretically, the flowering time of goldfish spider plant is in winter, but because the maintenance environment in different places is different, the flowering time is a bit disordered. Some areas bloom at the end of March, some areas bloom at the beginning of May, and some areas bloom in October and December. All of these are possible.

To sum up, the flowering time of the goldfish spider plant is so irregular, the key lies in maintenance! However, it will never bloom in summer.

Reasons for not blooming

Insufficient light

Light is essential for the survival of green leafy plants. They enjoy the warmth of the sun and accumulate nutrients for themselves. If there is insufficient light, they will be in big trouble. The plant grows poorly and there is no way it will bloom!

Improper watering

The goldfish plant likes a cold and dry environment. It has a short dormant period in winter and blooms after waking up. Putting aside the cool season, the summer is hot and humid. If you water too much, it will easily cause the stems and branches to rot and die. If the plant is infected with diseases and pests, it will be difficult for it to bloom.

Poor ventilation

The most taboo for goldfish spider plants is to be kept in a stuffy environment. If there is no circulating air in the breeding environment, the leaves will gradually wilt and turn yellow, and normal growth will be inhibited. If it happens to be the flowering season, the flower buds cannot grow normally and it is difficult to bloom.

What to do if it doesn't bloom

Sunbathing

Get sun in the summer, but not excessively. Get full sun in the winter. With sufficient light, the leaves can carry out photosynthesis, the plants can accumulate sufficient nutrients, and produce sufficient substances, so that the flowers and leaves have sufficient pigments, and the flowers will bloom more beautifully.

Fertilize frequently

Usually, you can water the plants with more diluted cake fertilizer or leftover beer mixed with water. It is very beneficial for the flowering of goldfish spider plant.

Freeze protection

No matter when the goldfish plant in your home blooms, you need to keep it warm in winter. Control watering and move it into the house in time. If it is a winter flowering variety, you should be more careful and place it in a sunny place indoors.
