It’s not really spring without a geranium plant<\/strong> on your balcony!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This plant is famous for its colorful flowers<\/strong> , its rounded leaves and the wonderful effect they create when we put them in pots with railings.< \/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We usually buy it in spring<\/strong> already in flower. Sometimes, however, we have geranium plants from last year that, despite the increase in temperatures typical of this season, do not bloom. Thus, we end up settling for seedlings full of leaves<\/strong> but without flowers<\/strong> .< \/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Actually, there are some tricks<\/strong> that can help us<\/strong> Stimulate the flowering of the <\/strong>geranium <\/strong>, <\/strong> , making the plant produce new buds<\/strong> and be filled with color! Let’s discover them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use the right fertilizer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Plants, just like humans, need a good supply of nutrients<\/strong> to stay fit and\u2026 flourish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes, in the midst of an infinite number of products, choosing the right one becomes difficult. Choose a fertilizer for flower plants<\/strong> or specific<\/strong> for geraniums: these usually be enriched with iron<\/strong> , a substance that stimulates flowering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manage in accordance with production instructions<\/strong> . Generally, the fertilizer is liquid and should be diluted in the water for irrigation<\/strong> . Then, it should be administered every 2-3 weeks<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the natural solutions you can prepare compost<\/strong> with fruit peels and dry leaves, placing them in the soil: these elements release nitrogen and potassium which help the geranium grow and give it a certain amount of energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning<\/strong> : If you are having trouble growing this plant, ask a professional for advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

prune dead branches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Usually by the end of winter, the geranium<\/strong> will have developed some long, woody branches  <\/strong> that grow during the cold season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pruning<\/strong> of the plant, eliminating branches that are too long, dry and asymmetrical, stimulates the plant to generate new more fertile branches< \/span><\/strong> and ready to bloom as soon as the temperature rises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do it with well sterilized scissors<\/strong> and trying to give a symmetrical shape< a i=4> , <\/strong>balanced<\/strong> and compact<\/strong> to the entire plant.< \/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep branches and leaves clean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It may seem strange or superfluous to you, but keeping the branches and leaves of the Geranium clean<\/strong> helps the plant maintain a < a i=3>good general health and, consequently, increases the chances of flowering.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For cleaning, use a mixture of water<\/strong> (about 500ml<\/strong> ) and Marseille soap<\/strong> (about 30 grams in flakes<\/strong> ), mixing the different ingredients and then passing it over the entire foliage of the plant with the help of cotton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This trick will eliminate the dust<\/strong> that settles on the leaves<\/strong> , facilitating the process of photosynthesis and respiration. Additionally, it will help prevent possible pest infestations<\/strong> , such as the mealybug<\/strong> and the aphid<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose the right exposure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

That’s it! Many cannot get the geranium<\/strong> seedling to bloom for a reason as simple as it is important: a exposure<\/strong> incorrect !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immediately place the geranium<\/strong> in a very bright place a><\/strong> .bright indirect sunlight<\/strong> . Light needs vary by species and variety: zonal and imperial geraniums, for example, don’t particularly like direct light, but they still need <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To avoid making a mistake, whatever type of geranium<\/strong> you have on the balcony, therefore, place it in a place with light indirect solar, especially in the bud development phase<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Light is essential not only for it to start flowering<\/strong> , but also for it to last a long time.  time<\/strong> : seeing is believing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
