Thank you so much for this video!! I got a beautiful Salmon pink Kalanchoe a few weeks ago and needed to repot it!! I love your tips and hope I do well with this plant!!💖🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hey there! your Kalanchoe looks absolutely beautiful ❤️. I just got a very small one last week, they were in full bloom and now the flowers are mostly dried up. i can see some small buds but they also look a little dried up so I'm confused whether should i prune the flowers only or should i prune the buds as well. It should be mentioned that I'm completely new to gardening. Your response would truly be appreciated. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi dear, You can cut down the wasted flowers. If you think that the buds are also drying then you can remove them as well. Removing dead flowers and leaves if any will divert the plant's energy to new growth. Thank you so much. ☺
To help your plant rebloom again, you will have to trick the plant by providing the plant with dark period for few months. reduce watering and no fertilizing. Place the plant in pitch dark and take out after few months. This will trick the plant to rebloom.
Could you show us how to propagate it please ? Mine grew so much its branches are too tall and they kind of fall on the side. I wonder if I could cut the branches and propagate them either in water or in soil. Thank you !
Hi dear, sure, I will make a video on propagation as well but its winter season here at my place therefore, i cant make it now but will surely do when spring starts. You can propagate kalanchoes with leaf as well as stem cuttings. place your cutting in water and wait for the roots to come out. Its super easy. You can try doing that...🙂
Hi there, If your plant is small and healthy then there is no need to repot it. But if you see the roots coming out from the drainage holes and the plant is overgrown then you can repot the plant. Thank you.🙂
hi, you mentioned about putting the plant in a total darkest environment. May I know at which stage (we do not have the 4 seasons) do I do that? My plant is blooming now. In Singapore there is only 1 season, summer all the time around average 34 degrees celsius daily.
In nature they bloom over the spring and summer. Then you furtilize them every month to two months. Then in fall you give the plant less light and in december the plant needs more than 12 hours darkness. In that time you will give the plant rest amd dont furtilize the plant. Also watering is a longer periode as once a month before you start to give him in spring every two weeks but not overwater the plant
Can I leave this plant outside? I live in texas and temps get to 100 F in the summer n about 4 hours of direct morning sun where I have it placed right now.
Hello! Thank you so much! That was sooooo helpful. I just didn’t get the reblooming part. So 14 hours of complete darkness and then do I put it on the light for the rest 8 hours? Or I just keep it in the darkness 24/7 for couple months? Thank you 😊
Hi Ekaterina, Thank you so much 🙂. I am glad that the video was helpful to you. For reblooming, you can place your kalanchoe in darkness for few months and then bring it out. During the dark period, the plant goes dormant and when you bring it out later, the plant gets tricked and starts reblooming.
Hello. So you put it in a box for 11 to 14 hours, and you say it should not get a single ray of light? But if it is only going to be in the box 11 to 14 hours then it is going to get a ray of light isnt it? Please explain this process to me.
@Sabb, Hi dear. To fertilize your plant you can use complete liquid fertilizer. Mix it with water and pour it in your plants. Ratio of water and fertilizer will be mentioned in the instructions on the bottle. You can also add some compost or worm castings on the top layer of the soil. Homemade fertilizers such as rice water, banana tea, onion tea are also beneficial. You dont need to change the soil to fertilize.. 😊
from what I have seen, you do that for a ~month or until you start to see the buds appear, then you can bring the plant out and leave it with a normal day's quantity of sunlight :) you only do this if you want your kalankhoe to bloom outside of its normal blooming seasons, if you don't mind your plant flowerless during fall and most of winter then you don't have to do this
Hi Amy, try giving the top ends a trim. This might initiate the flowering. Also you can try tricking the plant by putting it in dark place for sometime and then providing it with light.
It could be due to malnurishment. Try feeding your plant once monthly with diluted liquid fertilizer. Sometimes it might take time to get mature enough to give out more growth..
Help!!! What if I have a small plant in bloom and the leaves are turning crispy at the edges? I’m worried about my plant! I didn’t know what it was at first so I might have overwatered it a little in it’s slightly small pot without a drainage hole. I’m going to make a hole soon and have stopped watering it though the soil is still moist light a damp-ish sponge. I also put one small pellet of 6-2-4 Microlife citrus fertilizer in the tea pot spout(that’s the shape of the pot it’s in and I cant take it out. I thought it was a Bonsai rose at first but the leaves really threw it off so I found out it was not indeed a rose plant. Thanks!
Hi dear, the first thing you can do to save your plant is to take it out of the pot and check its roots. If the roots are black then the plant might have started developing root rot which happnes mainly due to Overwatering. Kalanchoes are succulents, they dont need a lot of water. If the soil feels moist to touch upto a knuckle then do not water the plant as the leaves store a lot of water in them. You can change the soil and repot your plant in a well draining pot and add perlite to the soil for better drainage. Then wait for some days and let the plant recover. Do not fertilize. Succulents dont need much of fertilizer.
My kalanchoes grow nice and lush indoors, but stopped flowering after the first round as I bought from the store. I also propagated the plant in 4 different pots and all of them grew nice and healthy but no flowers 😔
Hi Jay, Kalanchoes usually bloom during late winter and early spring. To make your kalanchoes to bloom, you might need to trick your plant and provide it with few hours of sleep i.e dormant period during winter by keeping it in pitch dark for 14 hours and then 10 hours of bright light for a month or so. When you see the buds forming, bring it back in bright light, water it and feed the plant again to enhance blooming. This planning is needed during winter season so that the plant can prepare for spring season. Try doing the same. Wish you all the best. 👍😊

I got a beautiful orange Kalanchoe but it died a few months ago.🥺 I can imagine because of root rot. I’m affraid of getting another one. I’m not good with succulents. I just can’t find the perfect time to water them.
I can understand. But succulents are pretty easy to care for. Even if you do not water them they can still thrive but not overwatering.. so the best strategy is to check the soil first by putting your finger in the soil upto your knuckle. If the soil feels dry , then water your plant. If it feels moist then do not water. Always follow "soak and wait" instead of "little and often" approach when it comes to watering your plants.
If you really struggle with overwatering, one tip that helped me is only watering when they show signs of dryness. Succulents need so little water that it's good to try to simulate a desert environment with them. Their soil actually *likes* to stay dry for a bit, so if u notice it's dry maybe leave it for a while. You can usually tell with succulents when to water them because a few of their leaves will turn crispy at the edges or their leaves start to look a little wrinkly. Good luck tho!
Best video I’ve found on these as it’s my first plant and need as much help as possible thank you

Thanks dear...🙂
Hi,thank for your explanation. I just bought one, i will not over water it, and doesn t seem to need repoting now. I hope will survive. 🥰
Hi Albertina, Thank you so much. Enjoy your Kalanchoe.🙂
I loved the VOICE,the commentary that followed and over all New Learning

Are they full sun in the morning and shade in the afternoon? Thank you for all your advice.
Hi there, yes, you can provide morning sun and afternoon shade to your Kalanchoes. Thank you 🙂
Can I leave this plant outside? I live in texas and temps get to 100 F in the summer n about 4 hours of direct morning sun where I have it placed right now.

Very lovely information but not enough visuals.
Thank you so much.. 🙂👍
Hi. How tall do these get?
Also are they better off in full sun or partial shade?
Hi there, i would suggest partial shade.
New plant owner- but does fertilizing the soil mean changing all the soil in the pot?
@Sabb, Hi dear. To fertilize your plant you can use complete liquid fertilizer. Mix it with water and pour it in your plants. Ratio of water and fertilizer will be mentioned in the instructions on the bottle. You can also add some compost or worm castings on the top layer of the soil. Homemade fertilizers such as rice water, banana tea, onion tea are also beneficial.
You dont need to change the soil to fertilize.. 😊
@@Homemakr thanks so much ♥️ lovely video you have!!
You say 11-14 hours of pure darkness. Is this daily during the winter months or just one time no light at all for 11-14 hours?
from what I have seen, you do that for a ~month or until you start to see the buds appear, then you can bring the plant out and leave it with a normal day's quantity of sunlight :) you only do this if you want your kalankhoe to bloom outside of its normal blooming seasons, if you don't mind your plant flowerless during fall and most of winter then you don't have to do this
That's right. Thank you so much☺
Do I need to water them or do they grow by itself? Answer pls!
Hi Halima, yes, you have to water it. But these plants dont need frequent watering as they are succulents.. just check the soil before watering.
@@Homemakr Tysm!
Can you feed it with ground coffee
I think complete liquid fertilizer will be fine for them. These plants don't need a lot of fertilizer.
I want a Kalanchoe like this. All the K. blossfeldiana I ever see in my area are single red flower.
Very beautiful
Thank you! Hope you also liked my other videos.
Mine is tall with out reached leaves in the south facing window. The leaves are a healthy green but it's not flowering. I'm not sure what to do.
Hi Amy, try giving the top ends a trim. This might initiate the flowering. Also you can try tricking the plant by putting it in dark place for sometime and then providing it with light.
So in the times of pure darkness, do you water it?
Hi Jo, No, during dark times, do not water or fertilize your plant. Darkness is basically to create a dormant period for the plant.
I have mine within a meter from the window, that is next to my window with a thin curtain in between- is that okay?
Yes dear, that is perfectly ok👍
From where can I get this colour and type of kalonche
Hi Imnoob, You find this plant varieties from the nursery. I am not sure which area you live in.
Is charcoal media permitted to this plant
my kalanchoe leaves root beautifully but i don't get a plant just lots of roots why?
It could be due to malnurishment. Try feeding your plant once monthly with diluted liquid fertilizer. Sometimes it might take time to get mature enough to give out more growth..
@@Homemakr I've been doing that i guess i'll just have to wait and see what happens.
@Mary Forest, yes, may be give it some time and see if it grows.
😍😍😍
Thank you!

@@Homemakr tried placing these outside in spring and summer and that didn't help either. I had tried the hybernation trick last year, again no luck
@Jay, oh ok.. Try trimming the top ends of your plant and see if that helps.
Use banana peel or onion peel liquid fertilizer.
Can you send me the kalancho plant cutting
Can i get cuttings for cost? ☺
