How to care for cassia in September to make it bloom vigorously
About the introduction of how to care for cassia in September to make it bloom vigorously and the maintenance skills of green plants and flowers, let's learn about it together.
After entering September, many cassia plants in flower friends' homes start to bloom one after another, filling the courtyard with the strong fragrance of cassia flowers. Of course, there are also some cassias that bloom at different times due to different maintenance methods or varieties, and are still in the process of growing flower buds. In fact, there is no need to worry too much if the cassia in your home has not yet bloomed. As long as you strengthen these three aspects of maintenance, it is believed that it will bloom soon.
First, move the potted plant to a sunny place
If you want the cassia to bloom earlier, relying on sufficient water and fertilizer alone is not enough. Cassia is a plant that loves the sun, and both bud formation and flowering require sufficient sunlight. As the weather cools down in autumn and the daylight hours become shorter, if the place where it is usually placed has too short daylight hours or no sunlight at all, it will affect the growth and development of the flower buds, causing the flower buds to remain unopened for a long time, and some may even shed a large number of buds due to insufficient sunlight.
Now that the sunlight is no longer strong, you can completely move the potted cassia to a sunny place to let it fully receive sunlight, which can promote the growth and development of the flower buds. Letting it get more sunlight can promote bud formation and flowering, and the flowers that bloom will also have a stronger fragrance.
When the flower buds open, move it to an environment with scattered light for maintenance. If the flower buds are open and still placed in direct sunlight, it will speed up the maturation of the flowers and shorten the blooming period.
Second, the potting soil should not be too moist
During the period of bud formation and flowering, attention should also be paid to watering. The potting soil should not be too dry or too moist. If watered too frequently, excessive water can cause root rot and also lead to the falling of flower buds; while soil that is too dry will affect the growth of flower buds.

During the period of bud formation and flowering, just follow the normal watering routine. When the potting soil is 80% dry, water it thoroughly. If the soil is not dry, there is no need to water frequently. For cassia potted plants placed in the courtyard, attention should also be paid to rainy days during this stage, as being outdoors in the rain can easily cause some of the flower buds and flowers to be washed away, affecting the quality of blooming.
Third, supplement more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer
Cassia can still be supplemented with nutrients during the period of growing flower buds. If the plant lacks nutrients, it will also affect normal flowering. If the plant is already full of flower buds but has not yet opened, it can still be fertilized to supplement nutrients.
When fertilizing during the growth period of flower buds, it is not suitable to use too much nitrogen fertilizer. If fertilizing, you can supplement some phosphorus and potassium elements. This is beneficial for the growth and blooming of flower buds. For example, you can use monopotassium phosphate once a week. On sunny days, dilute it with a ratio of 1:1200 and spray it on the branches and leaves with flower buds to supplement the nutrients for the plant, which can promote it to bloom as soon as possible.
It is now the peak blooming period of cassia, and many flower friends' cassia plants have started to bloom one after another. If the cassia in your home has not yet bloomed, you can follow the previous maintenance methods. It won't take long to bloom, and the whole courtyard will be filled with the strong fragrance of flowers.
