Light Requirements
Kalanchoe thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little can hinder growth. A south-facing window is often ideal.
Watering Needs
As a succulent, Kalanchoe prefers well-draining soil and should be watered sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot. In general, watering once every two weeks is sufficient.
Soil and Fertilization
Use a cactus or succulent potting mix for optimal growth. Fertilization is typically only necessary during the growing season (spring and summer). A diluted, balanced fertilizer can be applied every 4-6 weeks.
