When is the best month to prune Kalanchoe? How to prune it so that it blooms?

1. Pruning time

It is best to prune Kalanchoe in spring and autumn. Spring is around May and autumn is generally around August.

1. Spring pruning: in May, after the flowers fade. The main thing is to pinch the top of the plant so that it can sprout more branches and leaves, which will make it bloom more luxuriantly next time.

2. Autumn pruning: August is almost the beginning of autumn, and the plant is in its growth stage. A major pruning is very beneficial to its growth. However, do not prune after entering autumn, so as not to cut off the flower branches and affect flowering.

2. How to prune to make it bloom

1. If you want it to bloom more, you need to do a major pruning after it finishes blooming, and prune off the second pair of leaves and flower branches under the branches at the same time. When pruning before July, you can do heavy pruning, just keep 3cm long branches and cut off the rest.

2. After a while, it will grow new shoots, and those that are larger than 10-15cm should also be cut off. However, avoid pruning in winter and during the flowering period, as this will affect flowering.
