Gladiolus bent leaves before the stalk = no bloom?
Odd - I'd check the chemical mix. Might be simple as that to improve.
Some rock chem mix can enhance flower production in other plants.
Maybe if you have tired dirt it might take pushing.

This is my second year planting gladiolus, they are currently at the 3-5

produce
any leaves. If they produce green leaves, doesn't necessarily mean they
will
produce a stalk. If it produces a stalk, some stalks buds' didn't open.
I am
currently working on growing a "cutting garden". So my question is, can you
tell at this "3-5 leave" stage if it will produce a stalk? If they wont,
I'd
like to just get them out now to save the nutrients for the rest of the
garden. Thank you for your time
