Keep well-watered, adding water only after the top inch or so of the soil dries out. Lessen how much you water towards the winter and increase slightly during warmer months or dry spells.

Feed with a liquid fertilizer once every fortnight during the spring and summer or once a month if using a solid granular slow-release fertilizer. How often should I prune my calibrachoa? The calibrachoa is a self-cleaning plant so you don't need to deadhead or prune them. However, if you still want to remove plants as they start to go brown you can do so, and it may encourage new blooms to grow faster.
