Why does Gloria look so lame?

Question

#FloristKalanchoe

Answer

I have the same plant as you and these are the things I try. Try using some fertilizers and change your pot placement. Kalanchoes are succulents (with flowers), you  don't need to mist them (if you do, pls stop). You should also probably put him/her in a pot with drainage, might be overwatering.

Answer

strawberrymoon told me fertilizers that has NPK are effective

Answer

her soil might be too organic, kalanchoe are succulents and they don’t like too much organic stuff. also make sure the pot has drainage + she’s probably not getting enough sun. hope this helps ^^

Answer

not sure about your species but my kalanchoe (kalanchoe fang) likes direct light from a west window :)

Answer

It could be the lighting. Could be overwatering. How often do you water?

Answer

Add some dirt  mixed with pumice and eggshells. Make sure you crush your shells fine and mix it in. Your plant will absorb the potassium and phosphorus make it stronger. Hope this helps.

Answer

@Greenigirlx2 I have read that eggshells don't really help much(?)

Answer

Anything that has NPK (Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium(K)) you could make one yourself at home or buy one.

Ingredients:
Molasses
Gram flour
Compost
1 liter of water
Mix all those together and let it sit for 48 hours. After that just mix it in a 1(Npk):10(water) ratio and done! You cam now water your plants! (Lasts UpTo 10 days)

You could also use some boiled egg's water because the water has the calcium and potassium of the egg

OR

put egg shells in a grinder and make it to a powder, then add to vinegar (let it sit) then do a 1(Egg+vinegar) : 100 (water) ratio.

Answer

@user59d2ed74 you should also try looking for some pots with drainage just in case..

Answer

@user59d2ed74 get some grow lights. I promise that will help a lot. Especially for a succulent. And make sure the pot has adequate drainage. A clay/terracotta pot would help keep soil dry too
