As is well known, carnation is the flower of maternal love. Its flower shape and rich colors, as well as its long flowering period, are deeply loved by everyone. However, when carnations fail to bloom as scheduled, what are the factors? Can we help it bloom manually? The following text will focus on the above questions to discuss some insights.
What to do if carnations always fail to bloom fully? This problem is surely encountered by many people during maintenance. There are various factors involved. It may be the lack of appropriate light, uneven application of fertilizer, or excessive watering leading to root rot. In short, as long as any of the above situations occur, it will cause unsuitable soil conditions and hinder flowering. To solve this problem, it is necessary to start from adjusting the maintenance environment and improving the management methods to ensure that carnations receive sufficient sunlight, balanced nutrition, and appropriate water and soil conditions.
And if you encounter the problem that fresh-cut flowers do not bloom, you can help it bloom manually. First, take a relatively unripe carnation. You can rub it left and right at its calyx with your hands, and then make a small opening at its calyx shell and tear the calyx. Note that here, only a little bit needs to be torn, not to the bottom. Otherwise, if the flower opening is too large, the petals will easily spread later. Finally, gently spread the petals of the carnation with your hands. For daily maintenance, there is no need for special care. Just keep changing the water every other day and trim the flower stems each time you change the water.
Regarding the question of whether carnations should be manually opened? It actually depends on two factors. The first factor is the degree of flower opening. When we receive the flowers, we can gently pinch the part of the calyx. If it is already soft, it means that this carnation cannot bloom independently. At this time, if the carnation is still in the state of unopened buds, it can be manually opened. Otherwise, it may end its life before blooming. The second factor is personal needs. If you hope that all the received flowers can bloom at the same time, you need to help it open manually when it is relatively unripe. Then after a few days, when it becomes more mature, it can be maintained normally.
In addition, there is a problem that novice flower lovers may be more worried about. Will manual opening affect the flowering period? In fact, it will not affect it at all. Moreover, manual opening will have a larger degree of opening than natural ripening.
