What if the potted gardenia does not blossom?

Gardenia likes loose, fertile, well-drained acidic soil. Only suitable soil can make it grow healthier and blossom more. So, how can we keep the basin soil acidic during daily maintenance?

If in the process of maintenance, the fertility of the potted soil is not enough or the light is insufficient, it will not blossom. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied about 2 months before the flowering period of Gardenia jasminoides, and can be used together with microbial agent flower general fertilizer, so as to promote gardenia flower bud blooming.

3. Did not hit the top

Gardenia in the spring, the growth is very exuberant, many friends respond to a very dense but do not see its flowering, in fact, the main reason is that all the nutrients are used for growing branches, but all the nutrients for flowering are gone! Gardenia grows well, which is a good thing, but it does not mean that its lateral buds grow infinitely.

Blindly overgrowth only consumes the nutrients of the plant and blossoms with little or no flowering.
