FAQ
 

1. Why doesn't my African Violet Flower?

There are 2 main reasons for your violet not flowers:

  1. The African violet could be having too many leaves therefore all the energy is going to the leaves and not enough to the centre of the plant.
    Which is where the energy is require for your plant to flower, therefore you should remove the outer leaves.
  2. You would need to give the plant tepid warm water to encourage it to flower, with a mixture of nutrients.

2. How often should I water them?

The reason we have the wick system is to control the amount of water that the plant need, it is only the wick that will be in the water therefore the plant will only take the amount that it will require. When you see that the Maxi well or the Reservoir is getting low that is when you need to top it up with water mixed with the nutrients.

3. What should I feed it?

We use Valley Violet Nutrients to feed the plant it encourages to flower and you would haven a much healthier African violet.

4. How often should I feed it?

Dilute the Valley Violet Nutrients by using 2 liters of water and one cap full of the nutrients giving it a good mix and pouring it to the Maxi Well or your reservoir and you more or less are feeding your plant every time you are watering it.
