To cut a dead carnation, trim the stem just above a leaf node or where healthy leaves are still present. This encourages new growth and prevents the plant from using energy on the dead flower. Make sure to use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears for a clean cut to minimize damage.

What do you do when the petals of the flower have fallen off?
It you are talking about a plant it depends on whether you wish the fruit to ripen either for decorative purposes or for eating. If you do then leave the remains of the flower in situ. If you just want to dispose of the dead flower, just cut if off as this will often encourage more flower buds to grow.

If there was only one flower on the stem and the petals have fallen, remove the entire stem from the vase and dispose of it.

Is it necessary to dead head carnations?
Cut the spent flowers (deadhead) to keep the plant neat, promote growth (especially stem branching) and get a rebloom in the fall. Take care to nip off the spent flower, not the whole stem. If you look further along the stem, you will see tiny flower buds forming to take the place of the spent one, if given the chance. If a carnation goes to seed, it focuses its energy in developing the seeds instead of flowers. It is more efficient to multiply carnations asexually through cuttings or divisions, so there's no need to let the flowers go to seed.
