Choose varieties that have bloomed and are easy to form flower buds, such as White Beard Cinnabar, Green Calyx, and Light Fenghou. Add base fertilizer when changing the soil in January and February. After the new shoots sprout, apply cake fertilizer 1 to 2 times a week to promote rapid growth of new shoots. In mid-to-late April, when new shoots grow to more than 20 cm, pinch them off and control watering appropriately to inhibit the second lateral branch sprouting in order to accumulate nutrients. 15 to 20 days after the new shoots stop growing, flower buds begin to differentiate. The first stage is physiological differentiation. 50~60 days, at this time, watering should be properly controlled. The second stage is morphological differentiation, which lasts 40 to 50 days. At this time, fertilizer and water management should be strengthened.
Pick the leaves in late August and place in a cool and shady place, control watering, make the soil in the pot dry, and force it to dormant for a short period of time; place it in the sun in late September, strengthen fertilizer and water management, and it will bloom on National Day.
