Thank you for these videos. I was able to revive an almost dead hibiscus plant (which never bloomed once in my house after buying it ) by following your old videos. It took almost 6 months for my plant to fully recover and now it is in the heavy blooming phase. Can I prune my hibiscus now in the heavy blooming phase? Or is it better to wait until it stops blooming?
You are most welcome and I am very glad to your hear about your success story, that's really appreciable! As your plant is blooming nicely, it would be better not to prune now. Instead, please wait for some more days and do only when you see that it's getting leggy and producing less blooms. If I am not wrong, temp in your place is high and that is why, your plant did well even in winter. Normally, they don't do well in winter and we can prepare them for heavy flowering in Spring and pruning is the first thing to do. Wish you all the best and thank you so much for your feedback, appreciated!
Quite informative & lovely video. Wow you have many flowers! What size pot is ideal for Hibiscus please? last Feb I had planted a branch which is grown but there’s not a single flower yet!Please guide!Sir will DAP help in flowering?
I follow your contents. We live in a cold climate so I have built a small climate controlled indoor greenhouse with grow lights. Hope my hibiscus plant not only survives it blooms as well 🤞🏻.
Thank you so much for following, appreciated! Can understand..growing plants in such environment is challenging and Hats off to your effort, All the best!!
Thank you so much. Learnt a lot. Will try out on my hibiscus today. Keep the videos coming - if you have any on Frangi Pani pruning and mogra too, please post. Same for Parijata.
You are most welcome and thank you so much for your words, appreciated! I actually avoid pruning Frangi Pani as they almost shed all their leaves in the winter and doesn't grow excessively unless they are grown directly in soil. But still we can do soft pruning. For Mogra, I would upload very soon as I need to work on my plant urgently. Sorry for the bit late reply though :-(
Thank you, just uploaded today and here it is - ua-cam.com/video/N0qQbRc_Z5g/v-deo.html I hope, you would enjoy the result..for me, I am really very HAPPY!
Thanks for the tips. Is there a rule for how dry the soil should be when you are pruning? Sometimes I see dieback even when using a sterilised pruner and using fungicide on the cut branch.
After pruning please decrease the watering frequency a bit n let the top soil dry out before watering. Less leaves n so the watering requirement would be less. Dieback shouldn't happen as you use fungicide too..
Before pruning, please water as usually you do! Hibiscus usually needs lots of water and when I keep on terrace, during extreme hot weather (33-35 degree Celsius above) I need to water twice. Or else, petals get burned badly..
But only pruning will not produce such excellent result. I think the main reason for getting result like you is how to fertiliser after pruning. So request to please share that. Because my plant after pruning is again producing leggy branches
So after pruning my second year hibiscus which only has three stems is about 10 inches tall with only a few leaves. I repotted it with new potting mix and worm castings. Do I put it in the sun or keep it in the shade? We are in the 60-70's during the spring, but it's still 40's at night, so I have been bringing it inside each night. These plants are not cheap, and I would really like to get more blooms this year. It started from a 4 inch pot.
At the beginning of the rainy/monsoon season..that way, it would grow well like all other plants to do after getting rainfall in March-April. Thank you!
I just got a hibiscus plant & planted in my pot. It has 2 branches and both have 2/3 buds. Can I prune it now or how to take care of it. Please suggest.
No, please don't prune your plant now as it's a new plant. Pruning is actually done when plants goes in wrong shape, get leggy and not full. Thank you!
I try my best to repot once in Spring, every year. Sometimes it's not possible to repot in Spring, then I do at other times before winter starts. Thank you!
@@GardeningUpbeat sir also use less fertilizer means it's all fertilizer total bujet should be under 600rs The funny part is I got your comments when watching your video😁

Good video
👍👍👍👍👍
How often do you repot them? Only when they're rootbound?
I try my best to repot once in Spring, every year. Sometimes it's not possible to repot in Spring, then I do at other times before winter starts. Thank you!
Summary-
- keep at least 1 ft tall from the soil
- Don't remove more than 1/3 of a branch
- cut 1/2 cm above a node at 45 deg angle

Can we use RO waste water to water our plants?
Not recommended as it remove many minerals..thank you!
My hibiscus doesn’t bloom all the way. It opens very little. I’m not sure why
Please see if you got the Sleeping Hibiscus Variety..the petals don't get opened. If not, there could be light or fertilizer issue. Thank you!
Omg thank you so much! I googled sleeping hibiscus and it’s exactly that!
When I pruned, I felt like I was arbitrarily cutting off plants. I stopped doing it, All the leaves and stems have a right to live😊
Agree...with you..but by pruning we can get more flowers and grow many more new plants. Thank you for your inputs 😊
