Optimal Sunlight for Thriving Calibrachoa: A Guide
- Sunlight: Calibrachoa thrives in full sun, needing at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day for optimal flowering. It can tolerate partial shade but may produce fewer flowers.
- Soil: The plant prefers well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. It does well in slightly acidic to neutral soil pH.
- Watering: While Calibrachoa likes regular watering, it does not tolerate waterlogged soil. It’s important to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Good drainage is crucial to prevent root rot.
- Fertilization: To encourage continuous blooming, Calibrachoa benefits from regular feeding with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Feeding every couple of weeks during the growing season helps maintain the plant’s vigor and flowering.
