Response group of Kalanchoe blossfeldiana

Kalanchoe blossfeldiana Poelln.

The response group determines the number of weeks required for a variety from the start of short-day conditions to the opening of the first flowers. For Kalanchoe blossfeldiana, this indicator is typically between 9 and 13 weeks.

In the reference 17 varieties crop Flaming Katy, where this is mentioned in the description.

The response group is a key indicator in floriculture that determines the speed of the flowering cycle after short-day induction. This parameter allows agronomists to precisely plan the timing for initiating light regulation to obtain finished products by specific dates.

The actual time to flowering may vary depending on the season, as light intensity and temperature conditions influence plant metabolism. Furthermore, within the same response group, the biological age of the specimens affects the speed of flowering, with older plants flowering faster.
