The reason why marigold does not bloom and its solution

Marigold is a flowering plant, once it does not bloom, it will lose its value. Many friends will often encounter the phenomenon that marigold does not blossom in the process of breeding. So why doesn't marigold bloom? How to solve it? Let's take a look.

1. The temperature is too low

Marigold likes a warm environment and can blossom normally only in a warm environment. If the temperature of the culture environment is too low, then it is difficult to form buds and naturally will not blossom. Therefore, in the process of breeding, it is best to ensure a warm environment and control the temperature between 10 and 20 degrees, which is conducive to flower bud differentiation, especially in winter.

2. Improper pruning

Marigold needs proper pruning during the growing period, which can promote more plants to bloom, but pruning also has its advantages and disadvantages, if it is not pruned properly, it will not blossom or delay flowering. Light pruning is the main way to prune marigold, and the excess side branches can be thinned before flowering, which can save nutrient consumption and concentrate nutrients to make the plant bloom more.

3. Lack of light

When marigold is cultivated indoors, because the light is limited, it often causes it not to blossom. If the light time of marigold is cut off, it will be placed in a dark place for a long time, which will affect its flower bud differentiation and cause the plant not to bloom. At this time, it needs to be moved to a place with plenty of light for maintenance, but it should be noted that the summer sun is strong and proper shade is needed.

4. Lack of nutrients

Marigold will open an account only when the nutrients are sufficient. If nitrogen fertilizer is applied in the conservation process, it will lead to soil nutrition imbalance, resulting in plant malnutrition, resulting in overgrowth phenomenon, thus inhibiting plant flowering. Therefore, attention must be paid to the application of nitrogen fertilizer, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer at flowering stage, with little or no application of nitrogen fertilizer as far as possible to promote the formation of flower buds.

The above is the introduction of the reasons why marigold does not blossom and the solutions. I hope I can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
