1. Appropriate illumination: Hoya is a short-day plant. The characteristic of this kind of plant is that too long illumination time will affect flowering. If you want to promote flowering, you must ensure that the illumination time is about 3-4 hours a day.At the same time, because the plants are not tolerant to strong light, they should avoid the noon period and accept oblique light in the morning or evening.
2. Suitable temperature: Hoya is suitable to grow in a warm place, and the temperature should be kept between 20 and 25 , so that the plant develops faster and is more conducive to flowering.If the temperature is high, it is necessary to spray water around to cool down by evaporating water and absorbing heat, while maintaining good ventilation to avoid bacterial growth.
3. Loose soil: Hoya likes soil with good ventilation and drainage, and its roots breathe smoothly, so it can naturally absorb water and nutrients better, so that flowers can open as soon as possible.Pot soil is prepared by peat soil, sand and vermiculite, and a proper amount of calcium superphosphate is added as a base fertilizer, or humus soil mixed with coarse sand is used as a substrate.
4. Appropriate amount of water and fertilizer: Hoya in the growth process, must keep the soil moist, but want to promote flowering, need to extend the watering interval.In addition, it should be supplemented with a little phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote flower opening.Nitrogen fertilizer should not be too much at ordinary times, otherwise it will lead to excessive growth.
Hoya flowering is a relatively normal phenomenon, the flowers are highly ornamental, looks very beautiful.After flowering, we should continue to provide adequate light, control the amount of watering, too much water can easily lead to its bud fall.After flower failure, it needs to be pruned in time to avoid further consumption of nutrients.
