【One, When do carnations bloom】
Carnations usually bloom in summer, but there are many varieties of carnations, so some varieties may bloom in one season, and some even bloom all year round. However, the flowers sold in the market are ordinary varieties, so their flowering period is relatively long, but they will still bloom from the end of spring to the beginning of summer.
So, under good care, the time for carnation buds to form is significantly ahead, and after the bud initiation, long-term sunlight has almost no effect on the differentiation and formation of the corolla. At the same time, from bud initiation to bud completion and blooming, the number of days is generally around 30, and it has nothing to do with day length or variety.
【Two, How long is the flowering period of carnations】
The flowering period of carnations is generally from April to September, and the flowering time is affected by sunlight. Carnations prefer cool and dry, well-lit, and well-ventilated ecological environments. Regular sunlight conditions can promote bud differentiation and blooming in carnations. Carnations are cold-resistant and less heat-resistant, with the optimal growth temperature being 14-21 degrees Celsius. When the temperature exceeds 27 degrees Celsius or is lower than 14 degrees Celsius, the plant grows slowly.

Carnations like sufficient sunlight and good ventilation growth conditions, with the optimal growth temperature ranging from 14 to 21 degrees Celsius. If the room temperature is higher than 27 degrees Celsius or lower than 14 degrees Celsius, it will lead to slow growth, etc., so only when the temperature is reached, can carnations bloom.

Be careful not to splash fertilizer on the leaves during fertilization and immerse the fertilizer in the soil around the plant's roots.
