Jag mailade John Morbey och frågade hur de gör, här kommer hans svar:

The secret in getting so many blooms is stopping or pinching out each
growing tip which produces more flowers - the more growing tips the more
flowers.This also helps to shape the plants. The more you stop a plant which
can vary say every 8-13 weeks depending on the variety. You grow the plants
with a balanced feed which means all the numbers NPK on the back of each
bottle of fertiliser is the same and for the last few weeks you change over
to a hight potash fertiliser such as tomato feed where the NPK is higher in
potash. This gives the plants a richer colour. N is nitrogen P is phosphates
and K is kalium another word for potash. All feeding is at a quarter
strength at every watering during spring and summer here in the UK..I hope
this has been of some use to you.
