I have a carnation plant that appears to have flower buds but their very tiny while the stems are getting long, do you think i should move it to a sunny spot? And will it bloom again this year if i remove the flower buds?

Thanks!!!!!

I have 2 cinnamon red hots Carnations. They like full sun. Don't remove the buds. I did that with a few.....big mistake. The thing is, once the petals have withered, somehow new petals will come up where the old withered ones were. Hope this helps :)
