Notes on repotting jasmine: potted jasmine needs to be repotted and soil changed every year

Things to note when repotting jasmine

Jasmine needs to be repotted every year. The best time to do this is in March and April in spring . At this time, the temperature changes little, and the jasmine has not yet entered its vigorous growth period. It consumes less nutrients and is very suitable for repotting. The climate is also conducive to later maintenance.

1. When changing the pot for jasmine, you should choose according to the size of the plant. Try to choose a pot with a diameter 5-8 cm larger than the root system of the plant, which is conducive to the expansion and growth of the root system. At the same time, the soil in the pot should be well drained and breathable so that it can maintain the health of the root system.

2. When repotting jasmine, it is necessary to remove the pot. First, drain the water in the pot so that the soil can condense together. Be careful not to pull out the plant forcibly to avoid damaging the root system. You can use a knife or other tools to assist in removing the pot.

Tips for repotting jasmine

1. Root pruning and drying

When repotting jasmine, you need to trim off all old and rotten roots, and also cut off the yellow leaves on the plant. Then disinfect the roots in a diluted solution of carbendazim or potassium permanganate, and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

2. Watering

After repotting, the jasmine needs to be placed in a place with scattered light for 2 to 3 days, and then observe the dryness and wetness of the soil. Wait until the soil is completely dry before watering to avoid water accumulation. It then needs to be placed in a sunny place for maintenance so that it can grow healthily and vigorously.

3. Soil for repotting

The soil used when repotting jasmine can be prepared by mixing humus soil with river sand. Adding appropriate base fertilizer can make the jasmine grow vigorously.
